As meaningful and constitutive of the space

Does the highlighted sentence mean: "the perspective I am offering is meaningful and constitutive of the space therefore it gives more place to imagination and creativity, and it is not something external and determinant, and not a reified space one enters like a maze"?

This latter way of viewing art as experiential space can be contrasted with the notion of an “art world” or a “field” of art, which also make use of a spatial metaphor. From this perspective, an art world or field is something one enters into, which then plays a determinant role over one’s actions and beliefs. Though similar in ways, the perspective I am offering gives more place to imagination and creativity, as meaningful and constitutive of the space, rather than something external and determinant, a reified space one enters like a maze.
