Description
Summary:When we free the landscape from the aesthetic straightjacket in which it has been imprisoned (at least in France) by the great narratives of its origins (Briffaud, 2014), it becomes possible to embrace the diversity of perceptions and relationships formed between people and their environments. The landscape then becomes the best basis upon which to conduct landscape mediation and it can therefore be opened up to other disciplines and reinterpretations. In this regard, the dwelling perspective developed by Tim Ingold is particularly rich because it shows that such relationships are dynamically related to the practical involvement of individuals with their environments. To understand the subtleties of these dwelling perspectives, which are inseparable from the contexts that engender them, it seems that a practical engagement of the landscape architect with the inhabitants is crucial. It is this approach (consistent with the ethno-geographic approach combining disengagement from and engagement with the landscape experimented by Dominique Henry, 2012, in the Pyrenees) that was chosen to approach the landscapes of the Millevaches Plateau and to engage in the web of complex relationships at the heart of landscape action.
