The public space, a fundamental aspect of any society, faces significant challenges.
Polarisation, defined as the separation between groups of people,
gives reason to be alert to the potential restrictions of freedom and loss of autonomy.
How can individuals face these challenges without resorting to isolation?
The possibility of:
Becoming locked into the collective identity of a group as an individual.
You are seen as a group.
Or your individual voice might actually be heard through the power of the group.
Being heard as a group.
Not committing yourself to a group.
You are neither seen nor heard.
So I step out and observe,
but I look in while staying engaged.
I make room to create space.
