URBAN
IMAGINARIES
OTTAWA
First Edition
"Urban Imaginaries Ottawa" is an art-design and research project that prompts reflections on what our city presently is while exploring some possibilities of what it could be in the future. A prominent theme guiding all its activities is the idea of the city as a space to be sensed: a geography to be seen, heard, and even smelled.
A series of activities that will, alongside the local community, explore, counter-map, and reimagine the city. Among them, there are: soundwalks, urban walks, critical mapping sessions, creative workshops, and radio show episodes.
The first edition took place from February to May 2022 in partnership with Arlington 5.
