Dorothy Tang is currently teaching at the University of Hong Kong. Dorothy’s current research investigates landscape change due to production, infrastructure development, resource extraction, and urbanization at multiple scales. She is particularly interested in the rehabilitation of environmentally degraded landscapes due to mining, infrastructural systems in informal settlements or slums, and the relationship between urbanization and water resources. This research forms the basis for landscape design proposals that address these various issues. Most recently, Dorothy co-curated a design workshop and exhibition that explores environmental change in the Pearl River Delta and potential for collaborative infrastructural and urban strategies across the political borders of Hong Kong and Shenzhen. In addition to research and speculative work, Dorothy is also an active landscape designer working to implement small-scale landscape projects that seek to improve water quality in rural China.
