RSSAA has received funding from the Danish Arts Foundation, Statens Kunstfond, to carry out the interdisciplinary project, Jord og form (eng: soil and shape), sculptural walls in the Danish landscape. The project aims to qualitatively explore the spatial, phenomenological and aesthetic potentials of building walls in Denmark with rammed earth, resuming the use of a bygone technique. It is essential for us to understand what a rammed earth wall is and can do - phenomenologically speaking. What happens to the walls once they are placed in the Danish landscape? How do they feel to the touch after several days of heavy rain? Or a hot Danish summer day? How does such a wall smell close to the sea, surrounded by salty mist in central Jutland? Or rather a forest lake in northern Zealand? The walls are recognised as having hydrothermal, acoustic and fire-blocking properties. They do not block air and moisture, but allow the house (and its inhabitants) to breathe. With this project, we want to bring rammed earth walls into contact with different places in the Danish landscape and the different bodies, climates and moods that pass through it.
