ABSTRACT
With increasing urbanization, cities show the scars of ongoing or recent conflict and violence or spatially reflect exclusion and segregation. Regeneration projects usually focus on economic reconstruction and physical rebuilding; while reconciliation projects usually focus on social and legal issues (Simpson, 1997; Winton, 2004). Creative place-remaking – a term I use intentionally in order to acknowledge the ‘dynamic and dialectic relationship’ between community and place (Anguelovski, 2014) – has the potential to address the ‘healing’ of places where conflict or violence has taken place, or is an ongoing problem.
