The Anarchist Gardener is planting the fragments of a new layer - a Human Layer - into the urban environment of San Juan. He shuns self-induced stress and the dominance of inorganic power not based on real reality, which are destroying the ecological balance and the health of modern man. The Anarchist Gardener is working the city towards kindness.The Anarchist Gardener believes that people are good in the end. Kindness and other real realities will always find a way to reassert themselves. Like the air around us, we notice it when it gets polluted, when we run out of it. New air always comes in - the house is drafty. The Anarchist Gardener works to fill the void in today's valueless society with ethics. The real reality of kindness is now smothered by material nonsense.The Human Layer is an urban-planning macrostructure implanted in San Juan, Puerto Rico, by Casagrande & Rintala, Finland, together with 5th-year students at the New School of Architecture / Univ. Politecnica de Puerto Rico: Marel Del Toro-Cabrera, Omar Muniz-Munoz, Francisco Arco-Alonso, Ferdinand Rodriguez-Santiago, Marcelo Lopez-Dinardi, Sonny Maldonado-Amill, Herik Tomassini-Suro, Josue Rivera-Gandia, Ronny Marini-Goris, Pedro Claudio-Montalvo, Oscar Oliver-Didier.The Anarchist Gardener for PR'02 / m + m proyectos.Curated by Paula Toppila for Open Marks.
