These drawings are culmination of two months of research on the city of Genk. Halar was distinctly interested in the unique observable fabric of Genk on a day-to-day level. Thereafter his own bias and approach towards an unfamiliar community created the context for an experimental form of cartography. This approach to cartography, holds slow observation and steady focus as it’s core, leading to biased pieces of representative creations as opposed to factual depoictions of the said geographical location. This choice to push a full throttle on his personal bias is what lead to these playful creations.

The technique is exhibited in the form of four fine-liner drawings depicting copious activities in and around the cultural centres of the city.
