Dr Jung-Hwa Kim: A Vocation of Care: The Future Challenges and the New Display of Nature in Botanical Gardens
Abstract
This research project aims to explore a phenomenon in contemporary landscape architecture, the reinvention of botanical gardens, by placing it in a more extended timeframe to highlight botanical gardens as the theatre of plants, an emblem of the human relationship with nature. She will review recent master-plan projects of botanical gardens in the UK such as the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, and the National Botanic Garden of Wales.
