Previously a ground line was simply following the elevations of the surface, common language to architects and those in the building trade.

At ground line there is so much at play in the environment. Water meets earth, sky meets earth, we engage with the ground line on a daily basis. We are constantly changing the ground line with invasive machines and grand ideas.

At ground level there are exotic grasses that become invasive weeds in another location, surfaces are manicured in an attempt to rearrange nature, from thoughtfully placed steppingstones to  raked stone gardens and fence lines. Trees and plants positioned against a backdrop of concrete to try and bring the natural ground line into a new perspective.

When walking a natural bush trail, we embrace the beauty of the irregular unfolding journey and it ever changing seasonal differences along a ground line.

Taking the time to view what is at the edge or hidden just beneath the surface, the reflections, the foundations of what now pushes the skyline into greater heights. Without the ground line we lose our reference and how to care for our environment.
