MICHAEL BRADEN
Society’s natural proclivity is to advance at the cost of all else. This path to progress has inevitably led to an imbalance in the equilibrium of the natural sustainable system - we modify and take from the land we inhabit, severely transforming the natural landscape. In Urban Ecologies: A Pattern Language, Michael Braden responds to the underlying cultural, social, and technological forces that shape our urban ecosystem - creating paintings that use color and form to create order from chaos.
