Thinking about walking as a practice –
Walkers can cross predetermined boundaries and more accurately depict the lived spatial experience of an individual or a community. This activity, if made visible, would not be unlike the mark-making a visual artist makes on paper or a canvas, and reminds us that the boundaries described in official maps are actually fictional.
