The ground plan is designed as a parterre of planted ground covers, crushed white marble, recycled black rubber and blue marbles which are under-lit, giving the garden a nighttime glow and sense of water. Once stretched, these canvases foreclose any sense of wild abandon, because one can see the connection between the thick pools of paint and the dripping loops above them, a bit like Renaissance architectural diagrams in which the ground plan of a building corresponds point by point to an elevation drawn immediately above it. In determining a location, an accessible supply of drinking water, waterways for goods transport and efficient sewage removal were all crucial factors that shaped the ground plan and evolution of settlements. |
