<sub>城市化进程下，植物被⽤来改善城市⽣态，美化⼈类居住环境，名⽈“公园城市”政策 植物经过设计和挑选，⼀部分被人类栽⼊⽔泥铺装中，成为精品绿化，⼀部分则暗自生长在墙⻆墙缝，成为“杂草”。

为了反思城市规划对植物和生态的负面影响及其中的霸权行径，我探寻城市中植物真实生存境况。在环境设计专业的知识背景下，我行走在城市规划的各种绿地类型中，审视着各类植物的生长状态及环境，将植物与人造物、人工痕迹并置，观察不同的植物是如何被城市挤压，被人为驯化，在图像中强化着植物与人工的冲突。

本项目试图讲述出在人类中心化下，作为生命体的植物被人类商品化、工具化、审美对象化的处境，并反思着环境设计和城市规划对植物生命的漠视，尝试唤起大家对城市植物和 整个自然生态的进一步关注和保护。</sub>

In the process of urbanisation, plants have been used to improve the urban environment and to beautify the human habitat, known as the 'park city' policy. Plants are designed and selected so that part of them are planted in concrete pavements and become fine greenery, while part of them grow secretly in the cracks of walls and become "weeds".

In order to reflect on the negative impact of urban planning on plants and ecology as well as the hegemonic behaviors within it, I explore the current situation of plants in the city. With my undergraduate knowledge in environmental design, I walked through various green space types in urban planning, examining the growth states and the living environments of various types of plants, juxtaposing plants with man-made objects and artificial traces, observing how different plants are squeezed by the city and domesticated by man, and reinforcing the conflict between plants and man-made objects in the images.

The project attempts to describe the anthropocentric situation where plants as living beings are commodified, instrumentalised and aestheticised by humans, and reflect on the disregard for plant life in environmental design and urban planning, trying to arouse further concern and protection for urban plants and ecology.
