We Shape This City 

We Shape This City is a facilitated investigation of the everyday. The project inspires people to move differently in association with their neighbors and in the environments they move through daily. In doing so, we implement a micro-space of justice within the context of the workshop space. These new insights leave the room with us.

We Shape This City brings together planners, public health practitioners, organizational leaders, policy-makers, designers, engineers, architects, government officials, activists, artists, and all who shape their city to creatively engage with their city. Approaches to environmental awareness rooted in collaboration and group creativity lead to the creation of context-specific public performative works.

We Shape This City was initially developed as an Artist-in-Residence at MacEwan University’s Mitchell Art Gallery in Alberta, located on Amiskwacîwâskahikan, Treaty 6 Territory, Canada in 2018.
