Tassonomica faces how the need for understanding nature has historically shaped our conception of garden. From their very origin, gardens have always beared an ideal tension between knowledge and pleasure, resulting in the archetypes of the botanical garden and the garden of pleasure.

Even if humanity have underwent a journey of dematerialisation of knowledge, still space is the most powerful instrument for the comprehension of reality.
