This paper compares Salameh's psychogeographic work with that of contemporary artists walking urban landscapes, including Patrick Keiller, Alec Soth, Daido Moriyama, and Budhaditya Chattopadhyay. It analyzes their use of photography and soundscapes, along with fictional travelers, to evoke experiences of city life through alternating feelings of alienation and engagement.

Against the background of contemporary psychogeographic works, this paper examines Salameh’s work in comparison with that of other contemporary artists walking across urban landscapes such as Patrick Keiller (“London”, “Robinson in Space” and “Robinson in Ruins”) in the UK, Alec Soth (“Dog Days”) in Colombia, Daido Moriyama (“Daido Tokyo”) in Japan and Budhaditya Chattopadhyay (“Elegy for Bangalore”) in India. It explores their use of photographs to make soundscapes, soundscapes to make images, and the employment of fictional travellers to recreate a psychogeographic experience of the city through the evocation of images and sounds which alternately alienate them and draw them in.
