CfP for the session<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Feminist C/artographies<br>
<br>
</b>Inspired by recent feminist counter maps and map-making
processes within and beyond geography, like the feminicide
mappings of Sonia Madrigal, the Latin American
Cuerpo-Territorio maps, the artworks of Firelei Baez or the
art installation by Sonia Barrett in cooperation with Patricia
Noxolo and others we invite papers that are interested in
discussing possibilities, potentials and limitations of
creative c/artographies for our discipline, especially from a
feminist and decolonial perspective.<br>
<br>
In line with this year’s conference statement, we believe
creativity is part of any research process. Scholars such as
Katherine McKittrick (2021), Leanne Betasamosake Simpson
(2017), Sage Brice (2024), and Gloria Anzaldúa (Keating 2009)
remind us that engagement with creativity is integral to
producing feminist spaces. It has the potential to challenge
powerful disciplinary habits, sustain and nurture feminist
relationality, and create otherwise feminist insights.<br>
<br>
In this session, we are interested in discussing which
feminist perspectives, positionalities, spatial contexts, and
methodologies produce which forms of critical c/artographies
and how these can subvert and challenge spatially fixed,
patriarchal, and Western ideas of maps and cartography (Singer
et al. 2023).<br>
It is essential to discuss critical feminist c/artographies
that include ethical, processual, and decolonial feminist
issues. To do this, we believe it is crucial to explore the
limits and possibilities of a map and its practices and
emphasize the need for further critical feminist
c/artographies that come alive through collectivity, activism,
vulnerability, care, solidarity, rage, and joy.<br>
<br>
Therefore, we call for contributions that engage with critical
c/artographies and intersectional feminisms by engaging with
questions such as:<br>
- What do feminist c/artographies look like? Showing examples
that bring cartography, feminism and art into a critical
dialogue.<br>
- How can feminist c/artographic practices contribute to
critically questioning hegemonic spatial concepts and
producing transformative spatial relationalities?<br>
- How can feminist c/artographies contribute to visually and
creatively negotiating the patriarchal and Western ideas of
cartography?<br>
- What limits and pitfalls must we consider while working or
engaging with feminist and artful maps as a methodology?<br>
<br>
Presentation format: Both traditional paper presentations and
mapping formats or other approaches to presentation and
critical c/artographies are warmly invited.<br>
We look forward to receiving proposals (abstract of
approximately 250 words) mailed to Katharina Schmidt (<a
