Abstract(s)
Water is a structuring element, an integrator and constructor of landscape, since it connects all landscape
components and it is capable to activate and substantially support its dynamics.
The landscape built by Water can acquire a strategic instrumentality in urban contexts as being, a critical matter
determinant in life, and an eloquent mediator between the material, cultural, and natural reality of landscape.
The sustainable use and revelation of water, implicates a holistic and systemic approach, considering its global
dimension as matter, space and time, interpreting it, as motive and consequence to specificity of site and its
contextual possibilities.
This requires methodologies to deal with landscape performance, as a conjoint experience, as long as biophysical
system and as cultural and architectonic entity, and to research representation and implementation strategies
capable to reconsider its correlation and reciprocity. To act procedurally in space, foreseeing the formative
capacity of water, and its unique role as poetic revealer of landscape inheritance
