From Geodesign to Geoart: Maximising Research Impact in a Georesilience Framework

Design methodologies in Landscape Architecture have historically evolved within two distinct realms – science and culture. This dichotomy often underscores a divide between process-oriented large-scale master planning and site-specific form-making combined with artistic expressions and cultural cues. A unified framework adaptable to various scales, Geoart emerges as a novel and evolutionary extension of the Geodesign process, aiming to address this divide. It aims to provide a foundation for artistic expressions, from individual to collective, in support of Geodesign projects. By delving into the agency of mapping facilitated by digital technologies and GIS, Geoart empowers both collaborative and solo design endeavours, fostering participation and imagination to inspire the future. This paper proposes a broader concept Georesilience, to define distinct realms of actions to support the continuity and implementation of projects in uncertain times. This multifaceted approach offers a comprehensive framework for action research, specifically in the context of urban poverty and informal settlements facing the impacts of climate change. This inclusive framework can potentially integrate into STEM degrees to include place-based and culture-based creativity and experimentation for deeper engagement and communication with culture.
