Jury Comments
• In a sacred site, a single tree sometimes anchors the whole space down ..
• While working on any project experiment, exploration and experience has relevance while integrating plant and animal life into the
human environment.
• Project strategies need not always come from case study typology.
Human plant interdependence has been a very deep-rooted idea for a very long time. From seeking knowledge, to relying on trees for shelter, clothing, food the human race will
remain incomplete in its evolution without plants. There are innumerable examples that celebrate this relationship. To remain close to nature one has to co-exist. Examples of space formed around trees and vegetation has been seen in past.
A chabutara- seating space around the trunk of a tree, marks the importance a tree gives to the human. Till date such a space is celebrated. There are treehouses that evoke a sense of belonging and engagement with nature through spatial factor. To reach to nature some spatial platform is necessary. Since civi lization started man has been in close contact with nature. There have been ancient learnings like Somaveda, Atharva Veda which show the relevance of plant life in our well-being. With coming years, the presence of plants in our surrounding has decreased noticeably. With an advent of industrial revolution and influence of wars and colonization the ancient history of human plant interdependence is lost for a layman. Our experience has reduced to toxic interactions and no longer is there a scope to learn from the
nature. This study although remains continued through researchers that specialise in this field. Whether or not the scientific advancement remains undisclosed to common public. This isolation creates a barrier for understanding the plant kingdom on an every-day basis. When such a platform is brought to the surface, the interaction of public will increase and awareness and conservation can be ach ieved.
