An exhibition dedicated to the primeval forest garden in the Polish borderland by photographer Lech Wilczek, and the anti-migration wall dividing people and the entire primeval forest organism.
The exhibition is dedicated to a now-defunct garden in the Białowieża Forest, founded and documented by photographer and forest protector Lech Wilczek (1930–2018). The current issue of the wall built in the forest in the context of the migration conflict between Poland and Belarus is commented on in a mural by Jan Hošek, realized in collaboration with field biologist Jan Albert Šturma, who studies the ecological permeability of the forest heavily damaged by the construction of the border wall.
The exhibition takes place in the Keyhole: a space for gardening, growing, playing and art.
Special thanks to the Moravian-Silesian Region for the support.
Jan Albert Šturma participated in a residency at PLATO, resulting in the text presented in the exhibition. The residency at PLATO was supported by the European Union (Next Generation EU), the National Recovery Plan, and the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic.
