Abstract
Jamie Kruse of smudge studio is interviewed by co-editor, Valerie Triggs, in this special issue of the Review of Education, Pedagogy, and Cultural Studies, regarding smudge studio’s site-specific project, OBSERVATORY. Kruse explains OBSERVATORY as a geo-cosmo field station workshop and tea hut where contemporary practices of tea drinking are offered to guests for experiencing tea’s distinctive expressions of the forces of sun, earth, season, and cultural wisdom. Kruse discuss the ways in which tea, as an object, has pedagogic potential for reweaving human consciousness and imagination in relation to the cosmos as well as how it has become a personified force for smudge studio’s ongoing collaboration.
