Seed Bombing « Jardins et Potagers Urbains Les « seed bombs » ou » seed grenades » sont les armes favorites des « Guerilla gardeners », elles permettent en effet de végétaliser facilement des espaces urbains inhospitaliers. Elles sont composées d’un mix de graine, d’1/3 de lombricomposte et de 2/3 d argile. Ainsi compactées et séchées elles sont facilement transportables et on peut ainsi les jeter par dessus n’importe quelle barrière et sur n’importe quel terrain. Le terme « seed grenades » a été pour la première fois utilisé par Liz Christy en 1973 quand elle démarra à N.Y la « green guerilla » (les premières actions de fleurissement sauvage). Les premières grenades étaient fabriquées à partir de préservatifs, de graines de fleurs sauvages, d ‘eau et d’engrais. Les « seed bombs » aujourd’hui employées s’inspirent d’une technique inventée par Masanobu Fukuoka, le père de l’agriculture du non-agir ( une forme de culture Bio). 1. 2. 3. 4.

Guerrilla Gardening: Mini Ecosystem Installations On The Streets Of Madrid Take Root In a symbolic way, Luzinterruptus wanted to protect and preserve the small timid plants that live in the cracks around the city. Their outrage at the lack of usable green space in the city center was their impetus. To protect them, the group covered the plants with small umbrella-like greenhouses to shelter them from pollution. Small animals accompany the plants and live with them under their refuge, which is brightly lit with lights. The group was also aware that they would find few instances of plants growing in the cracks, so they also added their own plantings. Luzinterruptus’ goal was to draw attention to the lack of green space, to pay homage to the insignificant weeds that beautifully grow in unexpected places as well as to add even more green life to the city streets. + Luzinterruptus Via MocoLoco Images ©Gustava Sanabria
