Re-imagining "Hidden House" (from the title of a permanent display in Torre Abbey)
a parallel curating of an already curated space within a museum
curation overlay / layered curation / parallel interpretation / overlaid interpretation
I
was shown this space: a ceiling above a ceiling, pierced, preserved,
suspended. There are many more spaces behind spaces: windows behind
walls; staircases stepping onto staircases.
I had been filming
in empty rooms behind hidden doors.....and now I wonder about catching
sounds - something balanced between a systematic study and an irrational
disquiet - like the disturbance you feel when you sense movement in
your peripheral vision.
I heard it inside the corner of my ear
