Abandoned cubby huts: a site of dreaming and decay

educational resource
posted on 2010-01-01, 00:00 authored by Daniel Armstrong
The Cubby Hut is a powerful symbolic structure, an archetypal structure, and a place of imagination, dreams, refuge and adventure. The Cubby is ephemeral and passes from our childhood exploration of the world and into the dreams and memories of adulthood. These cubby huts are primarily built from and located in the landscape and are intrinsically linked to this context; they are landscape as architecture and architecture as landscape and in construction they articulate a connection between the imagination and landscape and decay as they return to the land and the psyche.
