Urban

The third category in our gallery is Urban, which examines the relationship between urban greenery and people. It touches upon how people can more directly interact with nature amidst growing concrete and metal-staged cities. Gardening and the urban landscape fuse two polar opposite forces: those of nature and those of concrete man-made settings. Those two intertwine in a harmonious eco-friendly habitat. It seeks to unpeel the layers of the landscape surrounding us to expose the flourishing gardens, surviving biodiversity, and the presence of gentrification.

Urban represents the microcosmos of collective living meaning partaking in one collaborative manner within the vicinity of a public space is something that concerns us. The critical space of a public urban area should be a space encouraging environmental health. The governance of cities and their urban design reflect their ability to portray a shared empathetic common goal of diverse accessibility promoting and encouraging nature. Through shared cultural experiences within green gardens, horticulture society is enriched. Urban living is shared space, a collective space that requires a thoughtful understanding of its landscape and what it means to sentient beings.
