The urban landscape is a place of constant movement, where things are under construction or waiting to be constructed. It is an evolving organism, society creating and recreating itself, society producing itself, making itself and then unmaking itself time after time. We live in age of representation. It has been decided reality is not theonly option, that it is possible to improve it.
Absolute unreality is offered as real presence, the absolute real becomes the absolute fake.
We make sense of nature by deconstructing it, breaking things down and then reassembling them. Such is our detachment from the actual that the natural has to undergo a process by which it is made fit for human consumption. Gardens and parks are an idealised version of nature. In this depiction only those elements that provide pleasure are kept, nothing remains of the negative elements that exists in the wilderness. It could be argued then that the natural urban spaces reflect the human effort to gain balance and beauty between the forces of nature, an idyllic image of what we understand for the natural, the cultivated wilderness.
