Borrowed Nature: The Garden Designer

Borrowed Nature is a series of fireside chats where experts are invited to share how they learn and make from nature in their practice. What does borrowing from nature mean? How can we preserve continuity between the human and non-human using our creativity and imagination? Nature is everywhere - in our homes, on our tables, our gardens, our streets and out there in the wild. A great majority of us coexist with nature, and some, use it as source material for their work. Artists, designers, culinary practitioners, and writers, in their various approaches, look closely at our interconnectedness with nature, our ability to bring the outdoors in, the indoors out, and gathering communities in shared spaces. Join us in this episode to hear what Zain Masud, The Garden Designer, has to say about embracing nature sensitively.
