ISLANDSCAPE AND AQUATIC URBANISM

Nomadic, Amphibious, and Resilient Archipelagic Ecosystem for SIDS



	

[Thesis] Individual project_In Progress-Sep.- Dec. 2023-Advisor:&#38;nbsp;Susannah C. Drake &#124; Principal of Sasaki-Site: Kiribati, Pacific Ocean




	

*The Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are a grouping of developing countries which are small island countries and tend to share similar sustainable development challenges. These include small but growing populations, limited resources, remoteness, susceptibility to natural disasters, vulnerability to external shocks, excessive dependence on international trade, and fragile environments.

	Preface


Climate change is not unidirectional. It is a systemic and episodic transformation of ecologies, systems and structures over time and space. Global politics intensifies environmental challenges on atoll islands and amplifies pre-existing inequalities by imposing additional hardships on already vulnerable communities. 

Islands, as both tangible geographical environments and metaphoric entities, are characterized by their isolation, fluid boundaries imbued with contention, and self-sufficient yet vulnerable ecosystems. Island is a miniature experimental station for the hybridization of cultures and global climate observation. They provide a unique framework for rethinking the relationship between aquatic systems and terrestrial environments. This uniqueness not only provides a distinctive perspective for understanding the notion of territory within the realm of design praxis, but also positions islands as potent instruments in architecture discourse. This should spark an enriched dialogue exploring the potential and criticality of archipelagic landscapes in architectural imagination, and at the heart of this discussion are the powerful visions of nomadic, amphibious, and resilient island landscapes aimed at addressing the severe challenges faced by Pacific small island nations within the global environmental crisis, such as rising sea levels, marine pollution, and coral bleaching.&#38;nbsp;

My thesis starts with questioning why territorial framing and the national scales dominated adaptation governance. How do “borderless climate risks” challenge this framing and what are possible governance responses? What happens to our urban resilience evaluation systems if we shift away from predominant global views and mega-city model, to the extensive socio-spatial and ecological transition currently transpiring in regions stereotypically perceived as “remote” or “wilderness,” like the Pacific Ocean. Are non-terrestrial environments such as the oceans becoming spaces of urbanization? To what extent are such zones now being integrated into the global nexus of urbanization? Furthermore, how do they deal with climate adaptation in relation to energy, water, material, and food and how do we understand aquatic urbanism in such contexts? Through representation and interventions across varied spatial scales, coupled with an integration of climate resilience theory, geopolitical visualization, and material experimentation, my thesis aims to addressing global challenges of climate resilience and equitable environmental adaptation in small island nations in Pacific Ocean and broaden the architectural perspectives of informal urban theory into the urbanization of “extreme territories”.
The concept of “islandscape”, weaving the tangible topographies of islands with their cultural, historical and symbolic resonance, is proposed as the theorization of aquatic urbanization. Far from being a passive backdrop, “islandscape” asserts itself as a generative design milieu, inviting nuanced provocations and interventions. Amid the intricate economic and political landscape and the geographical-territorial imaginaries, “islandscape” has become an interdisciplinary corpus that posits a profound avenue for contemplating climate resilience and confronting environmental inequities. The morphological strategy and testing of the concept “islandscape” commence with the subsequent four themes：

Water

Can you imagine a place surrounded by water that has difficulty in freshwater supply?

Waves become the “environmental infrastructure” of the ocean; they serve as the integrative nexus between energy, geopolitics, economy, and maritime ecological development. If we rethink the water geopolitics in the age of the Anthropocene, islands will no longer be the antithesis of the mainland. Atolls can be regarded as the belts for ecological integration, which have intense relationships with aquatic environments. They are the test places of amphibious landscape interventions and imaginative water-based urbanisms.

We will specifically look into the water supply system of Tarawa, Kiribati:
The population of Kiribati is approximately 92000, 50000 of which reside in densely populated neighborhoods of South Tarawa. South Tarawa is the most densely populated island among Kiribati's 33 atolls and has experienced a population growth rate of 3% per year. The geography of Kiribati is somewhat limited in arable land resources.
The infrastructure of Kiribati especially in the island of South Tarawa is under immense tension due to sea level rise. Most of the houses lack modern sanitation and are not connected to the town sewage system. Extreme weather conditions and high tides routinely contaminate the groundwater.

Community
A global biopolitical community- Local Community

Collective community in Pacific Ocean islands +vernacular modernity
We will design community-based adaptation to the climate change
In the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, each island stands as a beacon of curiosity, compelling one to dream of the next landform in the archipelagic sequence. This sequence, not just a geographical continuum but also a tapestry of diverse cultures, histories, and ecosystems, encapsulates the essence of an ever-evolving narrative. The notion of a nomadic islandscape, where the boundaries of land and water blur, offers a dynamic medium for Pacific cultures to intertwine and evolve. As these island communities navigate from one land to another, they carry with them tales of their ancestors, traditional practices, and innovations, leading to unexpected intersections of stories and shared experiences. This fluid movement and confluence present a vision of hope, suggesting a future where cultures can coalesce in harmony, learning from one another and collectively adapting to the challenges of the ever-changing Pacific landscape.

New rural communities construction has been in full swing in China in
recent years. In particular, the rural areas of the Yangtze River Delta have
become a dreamy destination for the government, the developers, and
young architects. However, there are always some villages forgotten by the
reformers due to lack of economic and ecological value, spontaneously producing
a marginal, mixed, and permeable landscape. I focused on my hometown, a small
village in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, and observed the aging of a village
through the spatial system restoration behavior called “blue patch”. Hence,
for this project, I abandoned the traditional strategy of renewing the rural
space and completed a documentary architectural practice from the perspective
of architectural anthropology. Through the narratives of three different
architectural entities, I will dig deeper into the power game that promotes the
characteristics of the village and appreciate the aging process of the village.
Besides, I will use photography, collages, interviews, models, architectural
drawings and archival materials to penetrate into the daily lives of villagers,
and explore the role of government and land policies, economy and kinship,
religion and lifestyle in the penetrating landscape of my hometown.

Eli Lotar, Aux abattoirs de la Villette, 1929

Designers and architects have long been complicit in a housing market that exacerbates social inequality, proudly compromising in this social war. I re-collaged this photograph of Eli Lota for my cover as a good metaphor for the jarring juxtapositions of murder and banal order. The striking homogeneity of the severed animal limbs suggests a formalized industrial precision. The dismembered parts form a terrifying horizontal line, just like the social boundaries shaped by modern urbanism. It is inspiring to redefine the strange coexistence of “ordered systems and bloody chaos” in the discourse of urban informality.


Informality,
as the aggregate of objects, conditions, and influences that constitute the
indistinct social space, has become an increasingly prominent urban phenomenon
in southern urbanism. The discourse on informality, narrates many crucial
contemporary issues, from environmental crisis and global inequality to the
unclassifiable urbanization process. Informality reveals an anchorless
generality beyond space, even time.
The term
“informality” matured in the 1970s, initially proposed by the International
Labor Organization (ILO) in 1972, which was used to characterize labor in Ghana
and subsequently in researches of self-built housing in Latin America[1].
Approximately
1 billion people live in informal settlements across the globe, most of them
located in the countries in the Global South. If current trends persist, the
number of informal settlement dwellers is projected to reach 2 billion by 2030 and
further increase to 3 billion by 2050[2].
Our focus on the informal city is not to build an idealistic utopia wi
	
th
modernity, but to find new corpora and interventions to avoid global crisis.


The
notion of “informality” underscores the intricate and ever-changing character
of social structures and emphasizes the significance of conscientious
contemplation concerning the principles, standards, and power dynamics that
mold our existence. On one hand, “informality” is a way of overcoming both
failures of statistical conceptualization and policy impasses, romanticizing
bottom-up autonomy; on the other hand, “informality” fuels incremental factors
of social instability, leading to unauthorized urban sprawl.


Informal
housing was embraced and rejected simultaneously- as it links housing,
environmental crisis and immigration in new and disconcerting ways. It’s worthwhile to bring
contemporary discussions on interdependence between infrastructures, humans and
nature into the “informality” discourse. The informal settlements need a new
narrative, precisely, is why they function as geological, biopolitical and
cultural keystones for us to understanding the southern urbanism.




Body as infrastructure

The informal urbanism is tied to "the
modern movement". Infrastructures, as fetishized forms of broader
social relations, comprising modes of (re)production, and reflect the illusory
desires of capitalist modernity. The visibility and invisibility of
infrastructure networks are perceived differently in the process of informal
urbanization.


Infrastructure,
as interpreted beyond dead matter, such as pipes, roads and tunnels, is turning
to emphasize the flows (of finance, resources, labor, care and repair) needed
to sustain these lively materialities.[3]That is to say, infrastructures
can not only be the material embodiment of structural violence, but also reveal
how networks of food, waste, and energy operate through political economic
structures that exclude the marginized body from equitable access. Infrastructure
framework function as a critical tool for re-understanding the space that made
out of the social relationships of the people and the physical structures that
come with that.


Seeing people
as infrastructure is beneficial to capture the mobile, flexible and informal
ways in which everyday practices reproduce life in the urban.[4]As Simone
proposed that, “people as infrastructure indicates residents’ needs to generate
concrete acts and contexts of social collaboration inscribed with multiple
identities rather than in overseeing and enforcing modulated transactions among
discrete population groups”.[5]


Commencing with a focus on bodily metabolism, we delve into the
intricate interplay of energy inputs. These inputs, sourced from food that is
intricately entwined within a complex web of colonial and capitalist production
networks, give rise to uneven bodies.[6] Or in
other words, the functioning of the body, regarded as a form of infrastructure,
is marked by unevenness, contestation, and incompleteness. It encompasses both
the realms of production and social reproduction. 


In this context, "space of food production
and consumption" serves as a measurement of power that is accessible to a
select, privileged social group, obtained and safeguarded with the underlying
principle of denying access to subaltern. Privilege weaves into a vast web,
trapping marginalized groups with slow violence, that “an attritional violence
that is typically not viewed as violence at all”[7].That is to say, less privileged and marginalized
social groups are forced to spontaneously occupy the spaces assigned to them,
exist in a state of mobility. 


Take the street vendors as an example. street vendors are always
involved with informal food systems, which refer to the combination of food
chains that contain informal activities. Informal food vendors frequently serve
as a vital resource for daily sustenance among urban low-income households in
various sub-Saharan African cities, such as Nairobi, Kenya.[8]Similarly, small-scale farming and local food vending that support the lower
socioeconomic population groups in China are ignored by legislation and urban
planning.[9]


It is a common phenomenon that food systems involve the informal sector
in developing countries[10].
The primary driving force behind this phenomenon is rapid urbanization, which
combines with a gradual shift of poverty from rural to urban areas.[11]For
example, over the past few years, the crisis within China's food systems has
become increasingly intense, stemming from the inherent conflict between urban
expansion and agricultural land use. Some migrant workers and the urban poor living
in “urban villages” rely on informal food production and informal food vending
for survival. Here, we step outside the grand narrative of
political economy and consider the body as an important and intimate dimension
of infrastructure, allowing insight into the multi-scalar spatial relationships
associated with bodily infrastructure practices[12].
From the work of women's bodies maintaining waste infrastructure in Dakar[13],
to gendered social labor in Cairo[14],
and the networks of care through which women secure water in Delhi[15], we
rethink the role of the body as an infrastructure in a spatial sense from the
perspective of the foodscape and energy recycle.


What is worth discussing here is how
to map
“foodscapes” in informal settlements within an environmental justice framework
and how people
exceed and resist the ways in which their bodies are produced as racialized and
gendered infrastructures.




From
Kitchen, Beyond Kitchen

The
site and ecological conditions within informal settlements indicate a range of
injustices related to location, such as limited access to water, inadequate
sanitation, transportation challenges in terms of availability, accessibility,
and affordability, as well as a lack of other essential social amenities. For
example, at least half of the Johannesburg's shantytown periphery's non-white
population lives in informal settlements in areas of toxic waste and unstable,
contaminated soil.[16]Food, as a thread connecting important environmental issues such as indigenous
cultivation, waste management, sanitation and water supply, needs a new
narrative and spatial image.


The
concept of a "foodscape" can be expansive and inclusive, encompassing
various aspects of food production, distribution, and consumption at different
scales.[17]It interconnects food, places, and people throughout the entire process. The
humanitarian response typically prioritizes addressing food availability and
food security concerns, often overlooking the significance of food production
and consumption spaces within informal settlements and their broader
socio-economic and environmental impacts.


Let’s start with
Kitchen.
Compared to the excessive and obvious flavoring in informal settlements, the
space of food production in formal neighborhood has evolved into flavorless,
minimal, and austere in the process of gentrification. The strong smell of
kitchen fumes and waste indicates the reliance on traditional biomass. The
kitchen not just function as a place for cooking, but also the only source of
heat in informal settlements.


The
presence of kitchens and cooking stoves strengthens the bonds of kinship,
friendship, and alliances, transcending boundaries of settlements, races, and
classes. Private kitchens are more easily transformed into a public network
within informal settlements. By expanding and turning the act of cooking into a
communal endeavor, these kitchens openly exposed the economic connection
between reproductive labor and the broader economy. 


The
kitchen, as
an allegory of urban metabolism, is occupied, conceptualized,
capitalized, displaced, deconstructed and reimagined.


Introduced in Germany by
left-wing groups in the 1980s, KüfA’s kitchens served as an act of resistance
against top-down and green-washed political strategies, such as the far
right ‘eco-strategy’ which dismisses the influence of urban activities on global
warming while endorsing gentrification and unsustainable agriculture in
Germany.[18]KüfAs
provide us
with insights into ecological care as a form of resistance, fostering
connections among individuals from urban and rural domains, and emphasizing the
political influence of food systems. Also, for southern countries, community
kitchens have the potential to blend traditional culinary customs with a
systematic approach to utilizing local flora[19],
which contribute to local environmental system. The strategies of communal
dining can assist us in designing for a critical ecological transition.

Gastromotiva is a collective kitchen conceptualized by Italian chef Massimo
Bottura and Brazilian chef David Hertz, and social entrepreneur, Refettorio
Gastromotiva, aiming at homelessness, youth unemployment, social exclusion and
food waste in a single stroke. The Refettorio feeds the homeless and the waiters are
volunteers and the chefs are young adults from marginalised, low-income
communities in Rio.

Informal
Settlements as “Urban Kitchen”

Since the pioneering insights of Patrick Geddes, urban theorists have
consistently acknowledged the importance of preserving a green matrix of
unspoiled ecosystems, open spaces, and natural services for both environmental
efficiency and public well-being. They recognize that cities must form a
symbiotic alliance with nature to effectively recycle waste materials and
transform them into valuable resources for farming, gardening, and energy
production.[20] While, most of the
informal settlements, are systematically encroach on their environmental support
system. Urban agriculture, in this context, has become a more visible land use
type and play an important role in exploring ecological balance and
sustainability within informal settlements. Meanwhile, it is crucial to
establish connections between urban agriculture and the prevalent
informal(street) economy observed extensively in the global south.[21]


Discussions on urban agriculture, which indicates its great potential on
the local economy and food security, might provide a possible way out of that
vicious circle. Instead of an
architectural framework that can “upgrade living system”, an infrastructural
one is more needed to empower the informal settlements.


If the informal settlement can be perceived as “urban kitchen”, the architects
will undoubtfully function as the cook. In a process of incremental
development, not only a corpus of systematic interventions that respond to
informal urban expansion, replication and regeneration was developed, but also
new clients and architects are created. Architects, who become initiators of
social processes, not necessarily aligned with power and capital has emerged in
this scenario where residents are recognized as stakeholders, remodelers, and
active participants in shaping their neighborhoods. 


Terms like “globalization”, “deglobalization”, “neoliberalism” as
metanarratives in postmodernity, are also spatialized in architectural
interventions. As Lyotard proposed that metanarratives should give way to
petits récits, or more modest and "localized" narratives, which can
''throw off" the grand narrative by bringing into focus the singular
event.[22] What
kind of "localized" narratives” do we need in the specific case of
urban agriculture and food production within informal settlements?

serene, high-art setting of the Corderie, this pop-up restaurant establishes a
dynamic, Venezuelan social hub. Food, as a powerful social equalizer, facilitates
the exchange of ideas in the most “convivial” manner.





We can obverse a bit of a buffer, or a rebuff, to modern urbanism within
informal settlements. We dig into a society's fundamental problems through the
lens of a non-permanent and unstable spatial order. “Localized” narratives about informal settlements in southern urbanism are
discovered ,formalized and consumed. The compelling narratives are encompassed
and elucidated within conceptual frameworks, bringing together the "little
stories" to form a complete picture, which is supposed to deliberately
disturb the formulaic expectations that organized urbanism provide.


The truth is that, there is never one unified image of informal
settlements which operates as a foil to the West formalized urbanism, but
several, often contradictory ones. While, the global north is desperately
thirsty for a resilient humanitarian imagination of southern informal urbanism
to ease their anxieties about the global environmental crisis. What we need is,
“a kitchen without hysteria”[23],
which be a work in this transitional period of the global imagination. “The
kitchen” is the aggregate of urban farming strategies, productive landscapes,
and infrastructure framework that constitute the indistinct social space. “The
kitchen” will lead us to find answers to the following questions: Can
community-based urban agriculture generate an open infrastructural framework[24] in
the process of informal urbanism? Or, can urban farming serve as a strategic
approach to enhance social mobility within informal settlements, thus empower
informal urbanism?


The future of an
informal settlement lies in its past and present. Practices of urbanization do
not necessarily result in the creation of a just city, and the research on
urban issues never moves definitely from ignorance to certainty, for the thread
of the inquiry will constantly lead us back to ignorance again. It is a
ceaseless social war in regard to redrawing spatial boundaries and reexamining
the urban immune system. Will informality, as a state of incompleteness in this
social war, be an unpredictable surprise or a flawed sword?

Then, in order to explore the logic of
instability, a new 3D printing technology was developed to control the
uncontrollable, creating a series of cohesive, organic, and malleable spaces.
In this context, the 3D printer was regarded as “water”, triggering the
formation of ambiguity through constant structural testing.

I approached the mycelium landscape as a
system of flows and connections by redefining the concept of forest to a
compound system through spaces with different access methods for both humans
and nonhumans. In such a context, mycelium is not only a natural element of the
ecosystem, with the characteristics of ecological construction and easy
decomposition but also as a mechanism for deconstructing the fabric of the
existing landscape. 3D printing the whole forest with living mycelium as a
system to define both a structural and spatial logic, and thus redefine the
internalization or externalization of “trees” in forests. Integrating mycelium
production, processing, and industrial application, the concept of productive forest can be fully
radicalized. By exploring the dynamic boundaries between new mycelium forests
and existing forests, different types of “mycelium moment” can be created as an
archetypal landscape and an alternative urban planting strategy.

	FUTURE LIBRARY 

An Knowledge Sharing Ecosystem with different time velocities
	Individual project

	This is a campus building renovation project. In addition to structural renewal, I pay more attention to the value and influence of the new building on the campus. I prefer to name the building “heterotopies” cause as soon as it is labelled “library”, the thing itself as a space for a certain open exchange and discussion is clinically dead.



I imagine the school library and co-working space as an ecosystem, as an open, fluid system in which a set of actors establish an exchange of knowledge and energy, in a delimited but permeable area. I use a “religious ”knowledge cube, encounter space and open platform to transform college life into an event that can be reflected, criticized, and imagined.



“Heterotopies” originated from Foucault’s space philosophy. It challenges the classicism’s interpretation of space, where space and time are used as a structural framework, and “events” are packed into this framework as “content.” “Heterotopia” means that a real space contains several different space types that are contradictory or conflicting at the same time, and these different spaces can be observed or imagined. In this project are a meditation room composed of a sequence of classical spaces, a large platform working layer bred under the contemporary high-efficiency cooperation mode, and a cube representing the form of future knowledge constitute a heterotopia. As an ecosystem, it reminds students of their attitudes towards knowledge: we are not living in a teaching building to passively acquire knowledge. Our behaviors, together with the self-evolution of the knowledge space, constitute the sum of social relations.
