Art as an Intervention in Public Space: How Art Can Act as a Medium to Cross Social Divides
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Collaborative community mural-making, as a community arts practice, intends to build community capacity with a focus on the needs and interests of marginalized members of society. Organizational efforts to collectively activate a visual identity with/in Winnipeg’s inner-city neighbourhoods can engage in the development of neighbourhood identity, representation, and pride. Mural-making has the potential to bridge a gap between/among diverse communities through visual learning and conversation. This study adopts a qualitative approach to understand Winnipeg’s visual artist community’s involvement in the public sphere of arts-making, key community players’ engagement in order to measure community change, and Synonym Art Consultation’s role in the production of Wall-to-Wall Mural and Culture Festival. By conducting 10 semi-structured interviews and reviewing relevant scholarly and grey literature, this paper considers arts-making, as it intersects with community/cultural planning, as a tool that can construct new knowledge that is expressed in visual and artistic ways. I argue that arts-based community-centred planning can elicit a bottom-up, grassroots approach to planning practices that gives thought to more radical planning.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
