“On Devrait Tout Détruire”: Photography, Habitus and Symbolic Violence in Clichy-sous-Bois and Regent Park 

Chris Richardson, Information and Media Studies, University of Western

Chris Richardson compares how individual artists in France and Canada use large scale, public, visual representations to destabilize the tropes of marginalized urban spaces that are considered menacing and hostile through a subversion of dominant news media’s images. It aims to establish Canadian marginalized spaces as unique and draw attention to the way spatial narratives are negotiated through embodied knowledge and lived practice.
