Over two years of Victorian-centric practice based research, we expanded our ideas around how we survey context. The result was an archive of observations on select landscapes. For our final elective offering of this three year series, we tasked our student cohort with creating site-specific, multi-sensory artworks corresponding to these taxonomic studies, for showing in a public exhibition. We engaged experts to participate in this process by contributing to the students’ understanding of their multiple roles in this project—as historian, artist and curator—while confronting their biases and how they shape the narrative.
