Aproximación al paisaje cultural y de memoria urbana de Cumaral Meta

Abstract

The research project focuses on the problem of urban articulation of the different elements of the cultural landscape and public spaces of urban memory of the municipality of Cumaral located in the department of Meta. This lack of articulating tissue causes the inhabitants of the place to lack a significance for their urban memory, which has been lost due to the different events that take place in the history of the municipality, which caused morphological changes in the area, which affect when understanding how it is perceived today. The problems of urban integration with the different spaces inside and outside the municipality, have a significant impact on the region and on the urban memory of its inhabitants, generating an erroneous perception of the spatial, sociocultural, and environmental dynamics that occur internally in the place. In order to find a solution to this problem, different research documents such as books, articles and theses that are developed around works of urban memory, cultural landscape, articulation, identity, resignification and environment are investigated to achieve a configuration of spatial articulation, with these concepts the present project is approached using a mixed methodology.
