🌱 spring is here, time to schedule watering your garden
tb to 2024 summer ad-hoc urban exploration of informal green practices in Panduri with
@medeea.sandu @timea.cristea @andreiiii14_ @_miruna.ioana
trusting the potential of storytelling not necessarily as a means to an end, but as a task in itself, we looked at ways in which caring for the green inner courtyard shaped home-making in Panduri and how the community’s actions participate in changing the general public’s perception of the cvartal, which until recently stood simply as a symbol for Socialist realism building ambitions in Romania
thanks
@kajetjournal for the opportunity to extend an academic seminar into this collaboration with my former students and the CoNECT /JPI Urban Europe consortium for having me tell this story last summer
