Mapping Spectral Traces
Mapping Spectral Traces is a unique collaboration of artists and academics. It is an international, trans-disciplinary group, exploring place, belonging and the (sometimes) violent histories that shape our landscape.
The site hosts copies of the publications of the network, details of its events, photographs of the good people who lend their talent and energy to the project and, of course, examples of their inspirational artwork, see for example the lovely posters and catalogue from a recent meeting in Virginia USA. The network has also launched its own blog and invited visits from anyone interested in how one might map the spectral traces of violent histories.
