The boardwalk, an older form of knowledge transmission, is constantly changing, particularly through artists who transcend the simple act of walking into an act of creation. Thus, in this article, we will focus on the city-nature relationship staged by artists through the reading of various artistic works mobilizing the boardwalk in different ways: drifting, loitering, etc. We will therefore be able to, on the one hand, reveal the ways in which artists are mobilizing the boardwalk in the city-nature report and, on the other hand, to identify and deepen the dimensions of the boardwalk mobilized by artists in order to recommend pathways in terms of spatial planning of urban areas favourable to the boardwalk.
