Walkinglandscapes

Walking Landscapes is a project dedicated to exploring the interconnectedness of walking, art, and cultural geography. It curates and presents a diverse range of walking-based artistic practices and research, emphasizing how walking as an embodied experience shapes and reflects cultural, social, and environmental landscapes. The platform features detailed case studies, artist projects, and scholarly essays that investigate walking as a method of inquiry and creative expression, highlighting its role in mapping places, histories, and personal narratives. The website also serves as a resource hub for those interested in the interdisciplinary field of walking art, showcasing walking routes, sound walks, performance walks, and other experimental approaches that utilize the act of walking to engage with different urban and rural environments. By documenting these practices, Walking Landscapes contributes to a deeper understanding of place-making and spatial relations, as well as the ways walking practices intersect with memory, identity, and ecology.
