Walking Art Practice - Reflections on Socially Engaged Paths

Ernesto Pujol here combines elements from an art book, field journal and walkers' manifesto. It is a text for performative artists, art students, and all who walk as cultural activism. Walking Art Practice is a collection of intimate reflections by the author, which bring together his experiences as a former monk, performance artist, social choreographer and educator.

They serve as a provocation, walkers’ manifesto and teaching guide for walking as mindful cultural activism.

This book is an invitation to:

• Rethink what it means to walk and explore different ways in which to walk as: a cultural practice ~ a meditative practice ~ a radical practice ~ art ~ healing ~ social engagement.
• Reconsider how to attend to the inner and outer landscape whilst walking.
• Treat walking as a performance resource.
• Walk as an everyday pilgrimage.
• Walk slowly, walk in and with awareness, walk
