Germinatorium
“Germinatorium” is a project by Cerrado Infinito is the first experiment to recreate a cerrado landscape within a public urban area. A refuge for plants inevitably extinct due to the development of the city of São Paulo, pushed to the outskirts until their complete disappearance. The project rescues them, mapping survivors, collecting seedlings and seeds to be planted together, gradually restoring the visual aspect of the extinct Campos de Piratininga.The attempt is to reprogram territories within the city, returning the land to a zero point, prior to colonial occupation. It is also an effort to cultivate an abandoned and biodiverse terrain, of plants, animals,and people, as they recover the memory of the place they inhabit.
