How much to change Nature
Posted On Friday, April 18, 2008 at at 7:56 PM by David BaillieIt is simply the law of the curve, of respect for all things, from which I create a space for myself among others. I refrain from the straight line barriers that dominate and control space within the cities.
How far dare I go to make life easy? When I make a path I move more easily between activities I thus connect. Do I need to get straight across quickly or can I put in curves and make it gentle?
I wish to follow the rises and falls so that it speaks of the land, to give way to branches in its space, and let is width vary as it passes by rock and root. Yet if I build many paths I make the space I share more human-defined, and it becomes the citified existence in which I may well wake to find myself petrified.
