The city is not simply a physical space but also a cultural and social space that is continually being constructed and reconstructed by its inhabitants. Unlike a fixed city image, mapping practice represents a temporary city that is open to change from an individual’ perspective. In that sense, I try to explore new ways of seeing the city through the social imaginaries of people from different cultures by co-creating with international student. As a tactical field, public space is an imaginary space that resists one dominant image of the city where participants produce meaning continually through observing and following their emotions in the urban environment. Aiming to understand how international students create meaning and how the city of Tilburg is constructed through multiple ways of mapping in three areas -Dwaalgebied, Winkelgebied, and Veemarktkwartier-, I focus on the performative aspects of mapping and challenge traditional mapping practices through psychogeographical and experimental video mapping.

unique encounter
She searched for familiar places. Listened to the sounds of the birds. The city is not very inclusive for her from the beginning, but it was the time when she felt like the city had embraced her while crossing to the other side of the road with the kind person she encountered. Despite the dominance of the city’s construction, it was a nice walk. The spaces of the city were slowly waking up.
