Why walking? My impulse to walk stems from my experience of migration, which pushed me out of precarious housing conditions and led me to search for connection and a relationship with a new city through walking it. Over time, it developed into a walking art practice, in which I walk and invite others to walk with me, using walking as a methodology and practice to spark conversations, explore our connection to the everyday, question the politics of public space, and nurture a more sense of belonging and connection to land and place. 

I walk one-to-one with both strangers and friends. I also walk with big groups and small groups. I have organised various simultaneous walks across distances, across places, and across borders. 

Together with others who have also experienced migration, I explore how walking can become a way of home-finding - what routes we weave in our new homes, and what paths from our previous homes we carry with us. I also use counter-mapping as a way to walk the routes we remember but can no longer access.

I often walk at night, exploring the urban nightscape and how the city transforms in darkness. I’m interested in how the experience of walking at night differs for different bodies in different locations. 

In my work as a walking artist, walking is both the medium, the material, and the practice, while the streets, cities, parks, forests, and other kinds of places are both the site and my collaborators.
