Radical Gardens of Love and Interconnectedness
Jenny Jones
Porter Visiting Professor Lecture
Mon, Oct 26, 5PM
Campbell 153
Terremoto is an internationally recognized landscape architecture firm based in California. The work is critically regionalist, respectfully inflammatory, and anti-style. Jenny Jones, a principal in the Los Angeles office, will share the work of Terremoto through the lens of their Radical Principles of Garden-Making, which guide their practice. This lecture will highlight recent projects that demonstrate the principles behind the collective body of work, with emphasis on modesty, closed loops, ecology and kinship, community, labor and care.
This event will be recorded and made available on the School of Architecture's YouTube Channel.
