Wildflower Meadow
Description
An account of the resource
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This project consists in a proposal for the redevelopment of the Gorbals Partnership, Glasgow. Inspired by the lyrical settings in which Ingmar Bergman often placed his romancing youth, isolated in nature, protected from judgement and convention, the artist aimed at creating a site that could encompass all stages of a lifetime and maintain the same soft touch and beauty throughout.<br />The artist statement was: “I would like to propose the creation of a wildflower meadow. For children to play, for teens to have sex, for adults to take walks and for seniors to remind them of their youth”.<br />Aleksandra Mir should have worked with a botanist to develop a meadow in five years, planting local species and restoring the traditional cycles of mowing and grazing.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/5202/1/Aleksandra%20Mir_Wildflower%20Meadow.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more</a>.</p>

Stonehenge II
Description
An account of the resource
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Stonehenge II is a proposal for a work in a public space by Aleksandra Mir.<br />Originally presented to the Artangel/Times open commission in 1998 (and subsequently rejected), the proposal was to build a Stonehenge replica close to the original, to reduce the volume of pedestrian traffic and save this piece of cultural heritage from further destruction. To compensate for the necessary limited access to <em>Stonehenge I,</em> <em>Stonehenge II </em>would allow full access and promote a wide range of activities on its grounds. The project was proposed a second time to students on the Royal College of Art curating course, who were asked to join the artist in the production of the project over the summer of 2001 (also rejected). The scale model was constructed in 2002–03. Aleksandra Mir continues to further her ambition to realize this work and hopes to make contact with interested parties who wish to assist.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/5200/1/Aleksandra%20Mir_Stonehenge%20II.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more</a>.</p>
