In preparation for my time in Cambridge I have been looking at the multiple traces of other spaces, and echoes of other imagery, in a collection of photographs I took on my last visit to the Fitzwilliam. There is a complexity to what is framed, and what is also inhabiting the spaces. I have written about the information that we pull from the art/museum but also the potential rupture caused by reentering it through its documentation. There is always something important about the subjective lens - which I refer to within my research as Merleau-Ponty's 'intentional arc' (2012. p.137). What we cast forward, in terms of our own lived experience, makes a specific space for our encounter. When we move towards a more material encounter what more is possible to grasp?
