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.

For the tenth anniversary edition of Made of Walking in Prosperpolder, six international artists have been invited to spend nine days walking, researching and creating alongside local communities. Each artist develops a site-responsive project that grows through encounters with the landscape and the people who inhabit it.

Applications are re-opened for the final WALC Online Course modules on Walking as Critical Spatial Practice and Walking in the Digital Age, exploring locative media, sound walking, mapping, digital commons, and collective walking practices. Free participation.
