Public Drawing – Printed by the River

  • Waldlabor
  • Located between a resting area and an eroded cliff, the river shapes a web of life around it. Animal footprints near the riverbank show that wildlife relies on the river as a water source and habitat — At the same time, humans are drawn to the river, finding comfort in the water’s presence.
  • The soil near the river is moist and fertile, supporting rich vegetation, whereas the soil farther away is drier and more compact.
  • A section view reveals the connection between the river and groundwater, with trees adapting by developing two types of roots — longer roots near the river to access surface water and deeper roots further away to reach groundwater.
