The Aesthetic of Golf Courses

For this project, I was mainly interested in exploring the concept of the word “landscape” used as a verb (“to landscape”). I think that golf courses constitute an interesting example of how humans shape the natural environment, somehow managing to make it still look quite “natural”, just a little bit tidier.

While mostly looking like conventional landscapes, the pictures present elements that don’t feel quite natural in each of them, such as the linearity of the shapes and the colours of the sky and grass.
