From Holocene to Anthropocene, human activities, aka the anthroposphere, have resulted in disconnection and domination with the rest of the environment, namely the ecosphere. This can be schematized by a polarized Nature-Culture continuum, more or less distant. Since the post-World War II, the “great acceleration” exacerbated the primacy of the short-term economy over the long-term ecosphere but also the mid-term culture. The international platforms (UNO, IPCC, IPBES) and concepts (sustainable development goals, planetary boundaries, global safety net) have gradually raised awareness, emergency and stewardship. Coastal resilience or sato-umi help translate the previous initiatives to the coastal zone. This research introduces the EcoSensible Sphere, as a novel scheme to re-balance the economy and culture, and thus re-integrate the anthroposphere into the ecosphere. That framework is applied to a coastal marsh in restoration (Beaussais in Brittany), in which the socio-culture, reflected by an artwork (“Relier: à l’abri dans la marée”, a 20-m wooden intertidal installation) successfully interfaces the socio-economy with the ecosphere. The artwork has acted as an ecotone-like (with emerging properties) exchange component to improve the social acceptability of the sea’s and salt marsh’s return, playing the role of a nature-based adaptation to the sea level rise, and also of an innovative sustainable economy, based on art sightseeing and eco-tourism.

摘要

From Holocene to Anthropocene, human activities, aka the anthroposphere, have resulted in disconnection and domination with the rest of the environment, namely the ecosphere. This can be schematized by a polarized Nature-Culture continuum, more or less distant. Since the post-World War II, the “great acceleration” exacerbated the primacy of the short-term economy over the long-term ecosphere but also the mid-term culture. The international platforms (UNO, IPCC, IPBES) and concepts (sustainable development goals, planetary boundaries, global safety net) have gradually raised awareness, emergency and stewardship. Coastal resilience or sato-umi help translate the previous initiatives to the coastal zone. This research introduces the EcoSensible Sphere, as a novel scheme to re-balance the economy and culture, and thus re-integrate the anthroposphere into the ecosphere. That framework is applied to a coastal marsh in restoration (Beaussais in Brittany), in which the socio-culture, reflected by an artwork (“Relier: à l’abri dans la marée”, a 20-m wooden intertidal installation) successfully interfaces the socio-economy with the ecosphere. The artwork has acted as an ecotone-like (with emerging properties) exchange component to improve the social acceptability of the sea’s and salt marsh’s return, playing the role of a nature-based adaptation to the sea level rise, and also of an innovative sustainable economy, based on art sightseeing and eco-tourism.
