Description

Bioregional Assembly_Salzkammergut develops a network of material, human and infrastructural resources in the Salzkammergut region and shows how these can be assembled in a way that could strengthen local ecological, economic and social systems in the future. The Salzkammergut region will be used as a case study and a 'test kitchen' for the implementation of bioregional design practices. An overview of all participating projects will be presented at the opening on 6.7.

Focus exhibition:
 
The Colombian designer and materials researcher Henna Burney from Atelier LUMA, a program of LUMA Arles, worked together with Salinen Austria AG and investigated salt mining in Altaussee as well as salt processing and production processes at the production facility in Ebensee. In close cooperation with internal experts of the company, a series of material experiments were carried out, such as salt crystallization, integration of salt in ceramic production and salt compression. The aim of the project is to develop prototype products and processes that can demonstrate new systemic applications of salt in the Salzkammergut region. The results will be exhibited and presented at the ‘Opening Event’ on July 6th.
