PSYCHOGEOGRAPHY the poetry of landscape

Urthona has always been a champion of psychogeography. Like psychotherapy psychogeography inhabits the uncertain border between science and art. It is the exploration of landscape and nature as a mapping of the psyche, in which inner terrain becomes outer terrain and vice versa, and in which the structures of society are experienced by the act of walking the land.

A few years ago we interviewed the celebrated nature writer Robert McFarlane, and asked him about his psychogeographical influences. To reach this go to URTHONA SHOP above and order issue 28.

Here are some links to other features of psychogeographical interest around this website.
