What if we never lift it after all, the only difference being that God Withdrew from the picture, leaving us alone with our own discontents? In that cases we can either, in god's absence, keep the garden or destroy it... (Robert Pogue Harrison, Gardens, 2008). According to this, all human being have a mental image about live in earth as our great garden and natural topography , which can ensure our continuity, sustainability and well-being. The story of friendship between man-kind and nature is taken as what draw the Art of place in this research and it's what is going to be elaborated and understood. This concept is mainly about the possibility to Socially vitalizing role of nature to be brought back to our urban lives to re -nurture a sense of our human instinct and bring us closer to the ignored 'other' - animal, plant or stranger " a city for all species".
