Bookshop by Uro
Kerb 32 launch
Join the Kerb 32 Editorial Team, RMIT’s Landscape Architecture Programs, and Bookshop by Uro to celebrate the launch of Kerb 32: Unsaid.
Kerb is a student-edited journal of landscape architecture, produced by RMIT University for over three decades, making it one of the longest-running publications of its kind in the world.
Kerb 32 explores the unsaid and unnoticed undercurrents that flow through the landscapes we inhabit. We may not know or remember the language to describe them, but they are still there, quietly connecting us.
This year’s issue features landscape practices and methodologies that voice or listen to what is often unacknowledged. Contributors contemplate their place as designers and their capacity to create environments grounded in empathy and reciprocity, which acknowledge mutual influence and agency in shaping landscapes across scales. Contributors include Timothy Morton, who reveals the hidden violence lying beneath the seemingly innocuous suburban lawn, Wonderground’s Georgina Reid, who writes on storytelling’s power to change our relationship to land, Inside Outside Office, on advocating for healthy soils through drawing, and Bruce Pascoe on the value of listening to waterways
