Norwegian bogs are unique eco-systems that serve as home to lots of vegetation, insects and birds. 5% of Norway consist of bog today and stores an equal amount carbon dioxide as Norways total CO2-emissions for 66 years. But the bogs are very fragile and has been reduced considerably the last decade.

This project attempts to increase the activity of observation and research at Slåttemyra in Nittedal, as well as inviting the public in a pedagogic way without destroying the sensitive environment. The question of mans relationship to nature is asked and the project is based on how humans move in the landscape as observers of nature.
