Desired Paths, Required Movement: A Guide to Travelling with Chronic Illness in This Place


Publishing in:
Global Performance Studies, issue 7.1 Uhambo: translating embodied wanderings into performance practices and epistemologies through audio/multimedia walks
2024


This work calls into question the ableist underpinnings behind the history of walking research and Western beliefs surrounding wandering. Consisting of an audio walk and corresponding interpretive maps, Stoner creates a guide to walking and moving through urban areas from the chronically ill perspective. The work asks, “who is able to wander?” by placing the listener into her thought processes as a chronically ill individual. Stoner explores and criticizes the Western history of walking and wandering research, beginning with Thoreau and discussing the Situationists, the flâneur, environmentalism, and finally 21st century ideals surrounding walking. This work is made available to the public through QR codes engraved on maps placed in a guerilla manner into the micro areas which they depict.
