Hosted by the College of Integrative Studies at Singapore Management University, the conference will explore the intricate relationships between culture, history, literature, art, and our sense of place. It aims to examine the emotional and political aspects of place, including how places can evoke feelings of belonging, security, and safety, or conversely, become landscapes of fear and disorientation.
