Life is a continuation of changing perspectives in our inner landscapes. Looking out into the horizon is simultaneously being aware of where we are standing.
Humans constantly yearn for home. If being at home means to belong, then poignant landscapes are the experiences that remind us that we always belong to life.
Consider the landscape architect as a modern archetype for a person who navigates the social and ecological world through a relationship with landscapes.
We cannot physically transform the world through landscape design in ten days, but we can change the way we see the world and make place by shifting perception.
Phenomenology as a concept can feel abstract. One way to understand experiences as phenomena is to consider the relationship between subject and object.
Our awareness is limited to what we know until we learn to shift the way we see. Phenomenology creates shifts by contextualising and bracketing experience.
