HEALING IN SYMBIOSIS

I have always had a considerable enthusiasm for environmental study, ever since exploring the topic during a summer camp at a very early age. In this study tour, organized by Global Natural History Day, our team visited Asian Elephant Breeding and Rescue Centre at Wild Elephant Valley in Yunnan, China. Located in a minority-Dai settlement, the village made of local bamboo is encompassed by dense banana groves in the mountain, which contrasts with most of the fast-developing urban contexts I have ever seen. As local culture exhibits great respect for nature, together with the eminent efforts made by the rescue organization, I was able to see an impressive moment when the elephant Dad successfully lead the baby elephant back to wildlife and soon disappeared from sight in the jungle.

I was deeply touched and realized the importance of the symbiotic relationship between human beings, culture, and nature in restoring a healthy ecosystem. In my view, landscape design is not just about designing a single space, but about designing systems of intimate symbiotic relationships between objects in which they can heal physically or spiritually and co-exist benignly over time.
