Anthropocene debates have ultimately generated an epochal sensibility regarding the extent and scope of the human ecological footprint on the planet, but also have actualised the importance of place within intricate ecological textures. By expanding a concept of chiasm, this paper addresses the uncertain localisations in the Anthropocene era, and advocates for a stronger sense of place. First, paper criticises approaches that severely undermine place by overemphasising its function in broader spatial processes and by concentrating solely on human symbolic constructions. Secondly, it asserts that, in spite of refocusing on materiality and providing an enormous role to the non-humans as mediators in composing places, accentuating the ontology of flows found in assemblage approaches still keeps places subjugated to space. By assuming that non-relationality has to be taken seriously in the Anthropocene era, it finally discusses how places, as chiasms present partial ontological condensations with various elements being unexposed and only 'locally' related. Besides non-relationality, it is argued that, in order to gain a stronger sense of place, the boundaries have to be thought of as something that allows the presence instead of separation and also events that conjoin and disjoin various temporalities. Beyond this ontological attuning, the paper concludes by discussing how the architecture could convene the endurance of places within shifting chiasmic context of the Anthropocene.
