Asiat Park

“Asiat Park” is a photographic report and a botanical index of the experimental landscaping, community spaces, and art & architecture installations at the Asiat Park site in Vilvoorde. It includes analog photographs and pressed plants from the site, all collected by Gianni Villa and Johanna Bendlin in the summer of 2025. Gianni started helping build stages for Horst Festival in 2018, and has come back every year since. Johanna got to know Asiat Park in 2020 through Horst Festival and the architecture office 51N4E, where she met Gianni. Over the years, they have observed how vegetation takes hold, persists, and disappears, the park revealing itself in a continuous state of transformation. They came together to share ways of observing the site, always in process and becoming, and a good place to be.
