Discover how local walking initiatives become nodes in a global constellation. Engage with case studies, platforms and shared infrastructures, and begin shaping your own walking-arts project within the wider network.
Move from documentation to intervention. Work with sensory walking, speculative practices, collective narratives and site-specific actions to imagine ecological and communal futures.
Explore how walking extends into digital space. Experiment with hybrid formats — mobile explorations, online platforms and collaborative mapping — and reflect on walking arts as open, shared digital resources.
Learn how participatory mapping, embodied storytelling and locative media transform walking into a tool for uncovering local knowledge, layered histories and shared imaginaries. Through analogue and digital methods, you’ll turn walking traces into collective narratives.
This Walking-with is about the futurity of the STILL HERE alliance of care for the SZenne: reflecting together on what a walking route connecting the river as a whole could become, from source to confluence, identifying places of meaning where the River Oracles of stewardship could be anchored and attendees received, with the intention to become an ongoing SZenne tradition that continues the alliance for many years to come.

Feroza Gulzar is a travel photographer and documentary filmmaker from Pakistan. She was born in the small city of Quetta, surrounded by mountains and lakes. She later moved to a big city for her studies. There, she realised she needed to move back to the mountains to connect to her childhood. While she was living in the north, the region was hit by massive floods, and many people were displaced and had to move somewhere else, either in the valley or to the cities. All of this makes her question that water is sometimes the cause of happiness and joy, but for some, it brings pain and suffering.
Vasl and Wei Leng Tay designed a three-week workshop at the Vasl residence. It was created for keen artists who were enthusiastic about photography-based practices and the relationship between art and society. Led by Tay, the workshop centred around bringing forth dimensions on the use of images, documentation of artmaking, the position of the artist in relation to the subject matter, in addition to their interface with the public and society. Through the use of sharing Tay’s methodologies, and of the participant’s art practices, readings, screenings and role-playing. The workshop aimed at engaging the participants in a peer-based manner, to build shared knowledge and harmonise with each other in order to ponder over the frameworks for their own practices.
