Extending Keller Easterling’s concept of architectural “innocence”, “Treefence” addresses the impact of animal industrial plants on their immediate surroundings.
With the complicity of industrial technologies and urban planning, the modern slaughterhouse, nowadays as an infrastructure, becomes invisible at the boundary between city and “nature”: Around a large slaughterhouse in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, fences made of acoustic materials are used to absorb both the traffic noise from outside and the screams of the animals from inside. Meanwhile, trees and other forms of vegetation are planted as a kind of camouflage for the ongoing “war against animals”.
