- City in Bloom is a meditation on the resilience of the human experience and the restorative capacity of nature within urban life. From the shaded elegance of tree-lined streets to the verdant sophistication of plants nurtured within apartments, these moments of “urban nature” assert themselves to our advantage, reminding city dwellers that serenity, a sense of place within the infinite universe, can be accessed simply by watching for owls in Central Park or pigeons on one’s own windowsill; beholding slivers of light, cloud, and sky between shimmery, towering skyscrapers; listening for seagulls as one walks toward a lake or river, then smelling the salty breeze floating across it. After all, even in the most industrialized of spaces, nature’s carefully calibrated biorhythms persist.
