Made of Walking: A Living Ecology of Walking Arts

Made of Walking is an international series of artistic encounters, residencies and laboratories initiated in 2016 by The Milena Principle and its partners. Bringing together artists, researchers, local communities and environmental organisations in remote, peripheral and border landscapes across Europe, the Mediterranean and beyond, each edition explores walking as an artistic, ecological and regenerative cultural practice. Artist residencies, walkshops, performances, exhibitions, collaborative mapping, public conversations and site-responsive interventions become opportunities not simply to produce artworks, but to cultivate enduring relationships between people, places and more-than-human worlds.

GPS, geo-poetic system

Geo-poetic system was a term coined by Lucy Frears during locative media art research (published 2017). The basis of geopoetics, a theory and practice developed by Scottish philosopher and poet Kenneth White, is to connect humans to the lines of the earth (White cited in McManus 2007: 183), or ‘what’s out there’ (Ingold 1993; 154; White 2005: 200; White 2006: 9). The contact White describes is often between the human mind and the earth, what he calls ‘landscape-mindscape’ (Legendre 2011: 121). Because of the embodied nature of locative media experiences using a smartphone in landscape for these walking art experiences using gps technologies Frears expanded this notion to being ‘landscape-mindscape-bodyscape’ (2017).
