“…Artistic research can help propose new means of placemaking for people who are newcomers to a place and its cultural context. For example, artistic practices have been used as a means of placemaking in the context of recovery from catastrophic events (Puleo, 2014). People choose to move or fnd themselves displaced for different reasons and often have no means to access mouth-to-mouth or traditional knowledge linked to the sense of place.…”

Artistic Cartography and Design Explorations Towards the Pluriverse

Rigid structures and differences in the sociocultural contexts of art academies and universities across the world can limit cross-disciplinary collaboration and network building. Artistic and arts-based research has the potential to unfold a transition in art and design felds, merging them into a cross-disciplinary arena that summons radical innovation. Based on the concept of the pluriverse, this chapter explores speculative scenarios of envisioning the future of artistic research by analysing four case studies. These cases apply similar methods in engagement with diverse audiences to disseminate multiple themes or concerns (social, environmental and cultural) and to represent different medialities/medial situations and scales of collaboration, hence contributing to the concept of the pluriverse within arts-based research and artistic research projects. This chapter addresses the following four questions: For whose beneft is artistic research initiated? Who is doing artistic research? With and by whom is artistic research conducted? Why is artistic research conducted? Hence, the social aspects of artistic research are explored to better understand the relationship between collaborative practices and research. The 'social' in the scope of this chapter includes a wider group of agents, including nonhuman contributors. After an overview of theory behind the key themes-artistic research, arts-based research and the pluriverse-the authors proceed with autoethnographic analysis of the above-mentioned questions through the prism of their personal experiences and specifc case studies from their respective artistic research practices. Further application of these autoethnographies in discussing the pluriversal agenda results in an outline of the profle of a contemporary researcher and the social aspects of her research, both in and beyond institutional settings.

“…Linton (2017) discussed how art therapy, using resources from the natural environment, allowed earthquake-affected people in Nepal to build connections and collaborate with support agencies, despite scarce resources. Working in Haiti, Puleo (2014) found that the visual arts, which he referred to as ‘humanistic activities’, allowed people traumatized by earthquake to re-imagine and articulate their future connection with place. Miichi (2016) argued that folk performing arts troupes enabled coastal communities in Japan, after the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disasters, to rebuild community, process loss and trauma, and memorialize the dead and bereaved.…”

We contend that the representational aspects of recovery play an important but under-researched role in shaping long-term outcomes for disaster-affected populations. Ideas constructed around events, people and processes, and conveyed through discussion, texts and images, are seldom neutral and can be exclusionary in their effect. This review draws insights from literature across multiple disciplines to examine how the representation of needs, roles and approaches to recovery influences the support different social groups receive, their capacities to recover, and their rights and agency. It shows how these representations can be contested and challenged, often by disaster-affected people themselves, and calls for increased attention on how to move creatively towards more informed, inclusive and supportive recovery visions and processes.

“…Unarguably, the most recognized and the most studied medium of creative place-making is art, which has different functions in forming places (Kwon 2002): art in a public space, art as a public space and art in the public interest. It is the third function that is in our focus because it accentuates the engagement of art in social issues rather than in the built environment: its ability to empower individuals, to induce change in areas in crisis (Puleo 2014), to influence the true vitality of a place and to create dialog with marginalized social groups (Thomas, Pate and Ranson 2015;Rembeza 2016). In this process, art is becoming an economic catalyst, encouraging innovation and collective actions (Thomas, Pate and Ranson 2015), and also a social catalyst (Markusen and Gadwa 2010;Kaplan 2015;Pavluković, Stankov and Arsenović 2020), creating not only a feeling of connection across diversity (Kim and Miyamoto 2013) but also affecting the quality of life in communities and improving public health, the (sense of) safety and the liveability of a place (Thomas, Pate and Ranson 2015).…”

This paper examines the integration of gastronomy in the creative place-making process. The study is based on the interviews with the organizers of five gastronomy events: a cooking workshop, a gastronomy festival, a series of gastronomy events at museums, a gastronomy theatre performance and an intimate dinner event. The contextual analysis shows that gastronomy events can contribute to five important features defining quality of place: diversity, liveliness, innovativeness, creativity and openness/tolerance. The final phase of our study brings comparison with findings in art-based place-making studies and discusses on diversity, integration in development policies and replicability potential of analyzed gastronomy events.
