What does life on the Maltese Islands look like to you and your neighbours? This project calls on the residents of six different localities – Valletta, St Paul’s Bay, Ħamrun, Birżebbuġa, Gżira, Victoria (Gozo) – to create subjective maps of the spaces they live and work in. Through open workshops, Subjective Maps encourages individuals to make new connections, share stories and exchange maps that place our localities in a different light. This initiative also explores the rapidly-changing communities of the Islands, mapping cosmopolitan public spaces that welcome diversity and encourage communal visions for towns, villages and cities. 2018 will see the results of the mapping exercises coming together in a final installation.

SUBJECTIVE MAPS MALTA Minn Marzu sa April 2018 Il-post jitħabbar aktar tard
Kif tidher għalik u għall-ġirien tiegħek il-ħajja fuq il-Gżejjer Maltin? Dan il-proġett jistieden lir-residenti ta’ sitt lokalitajiet differenti – il-Belt Valletta, San Pawl il-Baħar, il-Ħamrun, Birżebbuġa, il-Gżira, ir-Rabat (Għawdex) – biex jinħolqu mapep suġġettivi tal-ispazji li fihom jgħixu u jaħdmu. Permezz ta’ workshops miftuħa, Subjective Maps jinkoraġġixxi lill-individwi biex jagħmlu rabtiet
ġodda, jaqsmu stejjer u jiskambjaw mapep li jitfgħu dawl ġdid fuq il-lokalitajiet tagħna. Din l-inizjattiva tesplora wkoll il-komunitajiet li qed jinbidlu malajr tal-Gżejjer, u tpoġġi fuq il-mappa spazji pubbliċi kosmopolitani li jilqgħu id-diversità u li jinkoraġġixxu viżjonijiet komunali għall-bliet u l-irħula. L-2018 se tara wkoll ir-riżultati tal-eżerċizzji tal-mapep jingħaqdu flimkien f’installazzjoni finali.
