Slow Disasters (2022—ongoing) is a long-term, multi-continental project and methodology developed by British artist Andrew Merritt to address what he terms “slow disasters”: the long, often invisible destruction of landscapes and their biocultures caused by centuries of industrialisation, extraction, and ecological neglect. The project uses art, food, and historical–ecological research to restore damaged environments and rebuild relationships between people and place. Slow Disasters unfolds through two interconnected structures (Field Kitchens and Field Hospitals ) which reappropriate mobile infrastructures typically used in emergency zones. Together, Field Kitchens and Field Hospitals create a distributed network of regenerative sites across the UK, Mexico, and South Africa.
