Learning from war. A new pathway to the battlefield.
"Learning from war. A new pathway to the battlefield" is o strategical masterplan which creates on awareness of war landscape from WWl in Arnpezzo Dolomites. Reading oll the layers of landscape; history, infrastructures, rock formations, cultural factors, tourism and traces of war need huge amount of precision and sense of environment.
Dolomites are worldwide famous for mountain societies, tourism, geology, ecology and anthropology. These mountains create o sublime feeling to understand how nature is the strongest force in the Universe. During the history of Earth, nature is the strongest force to shape itself but lost 10.000 years, human has the power of change the landscape because of their needs of survival in existing geographies and we call it anthropocene. Dolomites ore one of the greatest example of how nature and humans change the landscape together. During the World War 1 mountains were huge castles for soldiers and it was their playground in other words. Millions of years nature shaped this magnificent landscape and this time the role went to people. Today this area is used for sport tourism. There are plenty of ski and hiking paths but just 5 meters away of tracks or paths, there are hidden history on the soil and it is still possible to find bullets, mines, wrecks and human bones. In this research, one of the strongest challenge is how to deal with all the layers of landscape which has huge amount of ruins, high altitude barracks, different seasons, rich ecological species and people behaviors. Main aim is to respect all of these factors and to not destroy or change any layers of landscape but make them more visible, help people to read environment and increase the awareness of landscape. Creating a path is not just connect points from a to b. It connects endless point of landscape portions from the smallest frame to the largest frame. Finally this system of pins create a new connection of landscape and pulls people out the path to teach their history.
