The text explores the concept of shared spaces and the role of spaces in caring for everything inhabited. It highlights the need for us humans to rethink spaces and engage with them. This thesis uses two sculptured objects in Malmö to illustrate the responsibility and response-ability objects and humans hold towards their places. The text aims to engage with these objects with care and consciousness. Theoretical frameworks of Leslie Kern’s Feminist City and theories of Radical Empathy in archival practices will formulate the basis for this engagement. This thesis seeks for actions of radical care through a feminist agenda. It concludes by highlighting the importance of empathically engaging in public spaces, leading to discussions around societal norms and questioning of human constructs.
