Lands on the Move considers the landscape as a series of stratified layers—temporal, cultural, political—whose composing, shaping, and influencing phenomena often bear fleeting, transitional qualities. The result is a complex, living spatial archive perpetually in flux.

Particular attention is given to the territory’s dynamic, “on the move” aspects: traces, memories, and material fabrics of interrelations that unfold across broad timeframes. These layers record everything from ancestral pathways and forgotten settlements to urban expansions, inglobing infrastructures and emerging land uses, creating a palimpsest of human intention and natural process.

While every landscape element offers a potential reading or interpretation of context, it is the temporary manifestations—those deep imprints left on land, on territory, and on its human and non‑human inhabitants—that spark our curiosity for the mnemonic dimension of place. Whether it’s the ephemeral patterns traced by seasonal flock movement, the geopolitical shifts forming borders, or the cultural rituals that momentarily reconfigure space, these phenomena invite us to consider the spatial consequences of temporal inscribing the permanent.

These transient events drive us to investigate the interplay of natural forces, geopolitical events, lifeways, and climate dynamics that radically or invisibly transform any given territory. By tracing these movements— spatial or cultural, sudden or gradual—we aim to reveal the hidden narratives that make every landscape an ongoing story of becoming.
