International Summer Seminar
1O–22.O7

Over the course of fifteen days, in July 2023, the International Summer Seminar involved students from national and international universities, the seven Fertile Futures teams, and partners and local people, in field visits, conferences, workshops and the production of installations throughout the territory. Fundão became the focus of the seven Fertile Futures research laboratories, by virtue of the fact that it is affected by water scarcity, intensive agriculture, fires and desertification and, simultaneously, representative of investments in social inclusion and technological innovation.

The proposals presented at the end of the International Summer Seminar by the different teams resulted in exercises carried out together with the participants: Corpo Atelier proposed an architectural structure as a means of observing the landscape, in particular, the Zêzere River; Dulcineia Santos Studio used collaborative design to understand the different qualities of the soil and water lines; Guida Marques focused on Cabeço do Pião and the urgent need to repair the place of extraction, using affection, memory and concern for the defense of ecosystems; Ilhéu Atelier developed a site-specific installation, based on a verse by Eugenio de Andrade, who explored the enjoyment of the waters of the Alpeadre stream, on the Castelo Novo River Beach; Pedrêz carried out an electroculture experiment based on the potential of electromagnetism for a more sustainable development of agriculture in the region; Ponto Atelier resorted to the symbolic evocation of a water mirror as an element to connect places, memories and cultures; and Space Transcribers explored the storytelling as an instrument of architectural understanding, materialized in a performative path between the banks of the Zêzere River.
