Overview
the writers and designers in this collection are among the most thoughtful architects, artists, landscape architects, and theorists working today. the editors organized these essays and works of art and design around three territories: the atmospheric, the biologic, and the geologic. each cluster of essays is further framed by forewords and afterwords, which draw individual points of view into a larger articulation of what an ambiguous territory might be and how it operates.
ambiguous territory emerged from a symposium and exhibition held at the university of michigan in the fall of 2017, and exhibitions at the university of virginia and pratt manhattan gallery in 2018, and at ithaca college in 2019. the conversations that arise in this book are inquisitive and critically engaged. they pressure assumptions we routinely make about what constitutes meaningful and principled perspectives in architecture, landscape architecture, and art. both the texts and the work take on some of the trickiest issues of our time.
