"There are many themes overlapping and intertwining in Daily Camping, all rising from specificities of both the site of Parc du Cinquantenaire and the city of Brussels as a whole. On an ecological level, we embrace a broader meaning of ecology where difference and complexity are welcomed as fundamental principles to create atmospheres for human and non-human interactions. "

The passerelle - the border of the park is a smooth transition – a gradient
The clearing - the centre is left empty, bare and generic
A natural swimming pool - maintained through the use of phyto-filtrating aquatic plants
