VIBRANT
Grounds
An embodied exploration of material vitality and architectural sensing.
Vibrant Grounds is an ongoing research project that investigates how movement, sound, and somatic perception allow us to attune to the aliveness of matter. Grounded in the concept of Somatic Architecture, the project explores how bodies respond to and generate spatial realities by entering into vibrational dialogue with the environments they inhabit.
Vibrant Grounds repositions matter—not as passive or inert—but as a breathing, responsive force that co-shapes perception.
IMAGINARY
gardens
anatomies
Imaginary Gardens Anatomies is a poetic-experimental framework that uses gardens as a metaphor for individual and collective growth, intertwining somatic architecture, embodied landscapes, and the living intelligence of plants and fungi to simulate new societal ways of knowing and relating, grounded in enactivism’s understanding of how human cognition emerges through and alters its environment.
