Closing reception for Walking, Lost and Found exhibition

Artist statement: I am pilgrim #15749 on the Walk of Wisdom, a self-guided path that winds through the eastern part of the Netherlands. In July 2024, a dear friend and I spent eight days walking alongside fields and waterways, atop dikes, up and down hills, through forests and sandy heaths. We walked through towns and villages, over bridges and canals, in sunshine and in rain. Walking made new learning possible. I learned to know the feel of different surfaces through the soles of my feet. I learned to know the strength of my own body and the endurance needed to keep putting one foot in front of another. I learned to greet new neighbors as we repeatedly encountered brambles and nettles, yarrow and rowanberry, gradually attuning myself to the surroundings and learning to listen in this place. The eight-part text of this sound piece is a meditation upon the rhythm of walking, getting lost and found, the strange becoming familiar as we learn to walk in a new way. ***The piece on exhibit here is a 2-channel version of an 8-channel sound piece that I made at the Sound Studies Institute, University of Alberta, Canada, in January 2025.

pedestrian acts

By de Certeau: In “Walking in the City”, de Certeau conceives pedestrianism as a practice that is performed in the public space, whose architecture and behavioural habits substantially determine the way we walk. For de Certeau, the spatial order “organises an ensemble of possibilities (e.g. by a place in which one can move) and interdictions (e.g. by a wall that prevents one from going further)” and the walker “actualises some of these possibilities” by performing within its rules and limitations. “In that way,” says de Certeau, “he makes them exist as well as emerge.” Thus, pedestrians, as they walk conforming to the possibilities that are brought about by the spatial order of the city, constantly repeat and re-produce that spatial order, in a way ensuring its continuity. But, a pedestrian could also invent other possibilities. According to de Certeau, “the crossing, drifting away, or improvisation of walking privilege, transform or abandon spatial elements.” Hence, the pedestrians could, to a certain extent, elude the discipline of the spatial order of the city. Instead of repeating and re-producing the possibilities that are allowed, they can deviate, digress, drift away, depart, contravene, disrupt, subvert, or resist them. These acts, as he calls them, are pedestrian acts.
