Paul Kolling is a Berlin-based artist and a founding member of terra0. His solo work in film, video, installation and sculpture looks at the social and spatial politics of infrastructure.

We kind of have in the Autonomous Forest quite a heavy focus on autonomy as an absence of economic exploitation and a sturdy ecosystem, as in there's not much flux of a lot of plants, for example, dying off or something like this.

And now we're getting to how Autonomous Forest came about, because four years ago a private art institution, the LAS Art Foundation, approached us, who actually knew already the project and said, it's a great project, let's team up and really implement this on a one-to-one scale with a real forest, just let's do it right ahead.
