Origins, authenticity and roots are interpreted through human actions, behavior as well as the essence of existence and being in space. Therefore, my thoughts on the subject “Healing Nature” have a starting point in experiencing and understanding of space and human nature.
The life and reality of space are made up of non-spatial and spatial elements. The first are biological, anthropological, sociological and psychological in nature. Spatial elements are physical, material elements. There is an important difference between the two processes. Biological processes are irreversible. The tree grows and definitely decays. Unlike biological processes, creation of spatial elements can be regulated almost without restriction. In systems that can be assembled and disassembled, and in virtual reality, the built-in space becomes a driving device that regulates its own capabilities.
Maslow’s hierarchy of psychological needs suggests that it’s in human nature to first have air, water, food and shelter, then safety, love and belonging, followed by esteem and self-actualization.
In this current perceived time of compromised safety, with no control or certainty, and in realizing that their primary needs and nature itself have decayed as well, some people are on their way to closing with-in and pursuing an independent creative and self creative activity.
