We are happy to present you the Virtual Garden Eden - the movies are generated from the questionnaires on GE filled in by people from all around the world! Give thanks and praises to Hansrudi Noser from IFI-Zurich, who programmed the L-system based movies for us, Felix Marthaler (webserver-programmer), Georg Bauer (our websupporter) and all the people around the globe that filled in the questionnaire on gene-technology!!! See the differences?!?

For many, genetically modified plants is an abstract thing, far away from the everyday reality. As Vietnamese care about what they eat and Vietnam kitchen is normally is fresh and healthy, we thought a dinner in the installation will take the gentech-issue nearer to the people. We were interested in sharing ideas and an exchange of experiences in art, science and everyday life. So we invited everybody to an art-science dinner…

Through our performance we started to build a plant within a given net-structure. How did this artificial plant grow? How will our “genetically modified organism” develop..?

“In Regrowing Eden we reflect on the manner in which society interacts with nature, and in particular with genetically manipulated plants. With gene-technology, humankind designs new life; nature is artificially created for specific purposes. In our artistic work we examine this concept and investigate the public discussion of this new technology in three countries. In the process we cross the line between artificial and natural and combine installation and performance, scinece and art, Switzerland - Brazil - Vietnam.”

Biotechnology is one of the 5 top priorities of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. Facing an increasing population, a fast and more and more landconsuming industrialisation resulting in a decrease in agricultural land, the government aims to increase crop yield and productivity for the national food security with the means of genetical engineering….

From the first minute we were overwhelmed with impressions of the Vietnamese lifestyle and the chaos in the streets of Hanoi. How to organise from Zero our Viet Nam Eden-installation within four weeks? Hanoi - a city where we don’t know anybody, Vietnam - a country with such a different culture, language, political system… Read on to see how it all came out…

Xin chào! We are in Viet Nam now - the third and last part of our Regrowing Eden-project has begun. The first impression of Hanoi, the Vietnam capital, is incredible and corresponds with its ancient name City of the Soaring Dragon: Pulsating with life, bubbling with commerce, buzzing with motorbikes – a city with a blend of Parisian grace and Asian pace… We expect having mayor difficulties because of the Taifun Lekima, that stroke the country a couple of days ago, leaving some parts of Vietnam with floods, destruction and death. Luckily, Hanoi doesn’t seem to be affected, so we try to set up our project VIET NAM EDEN…

Our installation “transgênicos” grew in four performative interventions. With our artificial “genetically modified organism” we tried to reflect our impression of the political and social discourse on GE/GMO in Brazil. Our Eden no Brasil was shown at the Museum Oscar Niemeyer in Curitiba, Paranà, from August 11th for one week. (Fotos: Juliana Burigo ©regrowingeden).

(After our performance Roberto Requião, Governor of Paranà state, invited us for lunch. In opposition to the national policy, the Government of Paranà tries to segregate GMO from Non-GMO streams.)
During our stay in Brazil, we talked to many scientists, artists, NGOs, media and politicians. We gave an extra-performance for 200 government-officials, and as the media of Parana, television and newspaper, was broadcasting our art-project, there were people passing by to have a look. Many visitors of the Museum Oscar Niemeyer in Curitiba have seen our installation and taken our information-flyer - in all, we had very lively discussions about art, science, politics and the pro and contra of GMO. During Eden no Brazil, we experienced the social discourse on GMO as highly political!

Pic above: Storage silo of Paranagua port (volume 100′000 tons). It became a national symbol for the Parana Government’s fight against GMO. The latest supreme court decision obliges Parana government to open the only silo within the Paranagua port for GMO grains. With this decision, the segregation of GMO and non-GMO agricultural products will become impossible…

Pic above: Hina with port authority of the strategic Paranagua port (view from the grain storage silo). Paranagua is the only port within Brasil that wants to segregate GMO from Non-GMO agricultural products like soybean and corn. Parana-state is fighting a fierce juridic battle against the Brasilian national GMO-policy. No other port in Brasil is able to export GMO-free products from its harbours…
