    Lane for non-humans

    Lane for non-humans. An artistic, ecological and educational project for biodiversity in urban space

    Spain
    The project encouraged students of a public secondary school of Barcelona to discover urban biodiversity in their school environment, to vindicate their lives and to negotiate with politicians for an urban intervention that yielded space for spontaneous forms of lives. As a result, part of the street was transformed in a vegetable lane for butterflies, bumblebees, ladybugs and other arthropods. This intervention is both a permanent artwork in the public space and an urban refuge for pollinators.
