Abstract
The study explores the relationship between visual perception and working memory through the medium of urban sketching at Phumin - Ta Li community in Nan province, Thailand. The research involved participants sketching various buildings and landmarks in the community while completing working memory tasks. The sketches and working memory task results were analysed to investigate the connection between visual perception and working memory. The findings suggest that the act of sketching can enhance an individual's visual perception and working memory. Furthermore, this study adds to the understanding of how urban sketching can be used as a tool to improve cognitive processes and a medium to record and remember the urban environment. The results of the study suggest that the act of sketching can serve as a means of enhancing one's memories about sense of place and working memory in visualisation research. The findings also indicate that Phumin-Ta Li community is characterised by a sense of place and a rich cultural heritage that is not closely connected to the residents but also recognized by the visitors. The study provides insights into the potential of urban sketching as a tool for understanding the relationship between visual perception, working memory, and sense of place. The research concludes with some recommendations for future research, including the use of various methods of data collection in order to validate the findings and to expand the understanding of visual perception and working memory in different contexts.
