while the snake of foresta is shedding her older skins, metamorphosing into her becomings on and with the land, we are walking through time with silence as a dear companion. not because we don’t care about sharing our process. but because we feel we are not yet offered such a space. we are offered to be with silence.

silence as a protagonist, as a protective veil shielding the humming midwives of foresta from the noises and distractions, opinions and beliefs. protecting the delicate processes of foresta’s becomings from the evaluating gaze, from even unintentional forms of unkindness, from any kind of extractive relations, even in their most innocent attitudes of what’s in this for me, what will i get, or what can i photograph. in the transparent opacity of silence, intentions stay unseen but become felt. who comes to give, who comes to get, who is indifferent, who is tuned towards genuine reciprocity, willing to jump into the unknown.

silence is a generous space that makes worlds more spacious, makes a sanctuary for the most precious, time and attention. let the midwives continue humming. let the silence continue protecting the delicacy of this time of becoming. let the shift from the extractive towards the generative continue making space for its unstoppable movement, as it is not (only) in the discourse but in the smallest details of relations. let us walk in wonder.

every form of welcome intimately knows time of inviting, hosting, and letting go. after 10 years seasonal portraits project completed its cycle. it is preserved in foresta’s museum of seasons, which offers an insight into how every season from spring 2016 to spring 2026 entered our collective memory.

this summer at foresta garden just north of berlin, we hosted the first exhibition of this museum, which contains all the seasonal portraits of time by all artists who participated in this custodianship of attention over the past decade. museum of seasons became a textile skin, a permeable membrane, a migratory architecture carrying foresta’s seasonal memory.

this summer at foresta garden two gestures of completion merged (seasonal portraits + woods in the city), as a symbolic ritual closing foresta’s nomadic chapter. what happened there stays there, but we would like to share some impressions into the exhibition itself. and once again to thank all the artists who have invited seasons to foresta over this decade, who offered their thoughtful attentiveness and skill of expression, who reflected the future hidden in the potential of the present.

our online learning format of the seasonal academy is also touched by the current motions of re-orientation and attuned re-structuring that foresta is living through this summer.

so for one last time we open applications to join the summer trail in its current form of a self-paced learning experience into imaginaries, strategies and tools for ripening into livelihoods, rooted in ecological imperative.

during this trail we touch subjects like degrowth, organising relations, unbewitching finance, commoning, and others that invite to align intentions with practicalities. if you choose to apply, you do need to bring with you an existing or an emerging project that you want to think with this summer.

application are open for one week until 19th july. more info and sign-up link in profile.

this summer we celebrate another anniversary and another completion of a cycle. 10 years ago ‘woods in the city’ was born in berlin - a physical nomadic space for collective inquiry and research-in-public, a unified field and a contact zone.

5 years above ground, inviting everyone interested to join these gatherings and experimentations. 5 years under ground, in intimate company of lifeforms that cannot survive under exposure.

we already shared an invitation in the previous post for one gesture of completion. we now extend it to include this one too. same date. 25th of july. an afternoon in-person gathering. just outside of berlin. time and place on request. we look forward to seeing you.

there are rhythms that carry us until one day we realise the breath of seasons has changed.

from spring 2016 to spring 2026 we’ve been welcoming summers, autumns, winters and springs into foresta, invited by artists who share affinities for forests, inner and outer, from across geographies.

this year summer came into foresta as a sound, as a presence without image, as a pause. and we realised a new cycle made itself perceivable. for some time now foresta has been in the process of landing, becoming a real forest, a habitable skin, its own place. and we are no longer thinking with the established rhythms of seasonal tides. we are beginning to ask what rhythms are truly ours to recognize, extending relational gestures of portrait-making towards a deeper attunement.

the seasonal portrait as we knew it for the past 10 years is now completing its cycle. we warmly thank all the artists who have invited seasons to foresta over this decade, who offered thoughtful attentiveness and skill of expression, who reflected the future hidden in the possible of the present and whose work shows how each particular time entered our collective memory.

while we are still dwelling with MA, attuning to a new rhythm and perception of time evolving at foresta, this summer and autumn we’ll host exhibitions of foresta’s museum of seasons, which carries all the seasonal portraits of time by all artists who participated in custodianship of attention over this past decade. beside being an online presence, museum of seasons is now finding expression as a textile skin, a permeable membrane, a traveling exhibition, which is not only a documentation of these past 10 years of seasons, but also, and perhaps more importantly, an inhabitable, migratory architecture carrying foresta’s seasonal memory.

the first exhibition will take place just outside of berlin on the 25th of july. if you like to come, just drop us a message, email, letter, send a pigeon, an ultrasonic blip, whatever medium you like, and we’ll send you the invitation.

dear butterflies, we hope you had a vibrant spring where you could care for the seeds of what’s meaningful to you in this moment. you were caterpillar before, a cocoon to recompose yourselves as a new creature to becoming, and not only. and as you are potentially not a real butterfly, what might this becoming mean for you? where do you go from here? what are you ripening into this summer?

thank you for joining us this spring.

as sometimes things happen that could not have been planned, and nobody is replaceable, on a day of summer solstice a pause comes to foresta. brought by re-story-ation between the lion and the unicorn. before the summer comes to foresta. MA is a Japanese word with many meanings. but as we are not japanese we do not adventure into translation. just breathing in, and breathing out, with a pause in-between. .

we are sharing another insight from one of the past year’s residencies we hosted at foresta on the land.

as part of ‘architectures of connection’ series we welcomed for a residency reflecting on the role of an architect within networked thinking of a living ecology, entering a multispecies territory from a humble and attentive perspective acknowledging the agency and abundance that the territory already manifests, emphasising an inquiry into bioregional design and experimenting with how eco-philosophical theory can translate into practice.

on the day of an equinox, enveloped into the scent choir of moist soil, awakening trees and first flowers, spring comes to foresta. invited by the playful gesture of 🧚💚🦋

will you accept an invitation, an imaginative leap to be a butterfly this spring? to leave the cocoon, to make space, to spread your wings, to taste with your feet, to sense with the little hairs covering your body, and to use your compound eyes to see otherwise.

even if you don’t have thousands of tiny lenses making up your eye, you have thousands of invisible multiplicities making up your “i”:

affinities, alienations, belongings, vulnerabilities and other shared planetary existentials, through which the contours of othering can magically appear or disappear any moment.

where violence requires an ‘other’ in order to exist and be justified, the butterfly effect reminds us that it may be the very components of personality that don’t allow us to see some other components of personality and to take yet others seriously.

be well and vigilant, dear butterflies. the flap of your wings will take you to cinta’s gallery (link to visual strolls in profile)

our horse neighbor whispered this morning it’s a begin-time. time of pregnant hopefulness in spite of. time to listen to what may come from silence, to trust the instincts, to send love, make honest coalitions, and hold space for the renewal of the possible. within local contexts that may spill into larger planetary circles.

if our collective imagination is being hijacked, whether by fear, worry, polarization, aggression, a sense of superiority or just being knocked down by circumstances, our continuous effort could be to re-enchant the imagination, to reconnect to wonder, be guided anew by the sense of awe for being part of this incredible process - life on earth.

beginnings know no ends. let us be guided by the fire horse.
