This lecture is part of the annual PhD Research Projects conference and brings together the conference’s five respondents, Irene Cheng, Amy Kulper, Huda Tayob, Phil Ayres and Ayona Datta. Variously located in the United States, in South Africa and across Europe, they will discuss the topic of “distance.” Each speaker will contribute specific thoughts on their own response to the theme of “distance” in relation to their work and teaching practices, reflecting on a broad range of temporal and spatial forms of distance in our research at the moment, ranging from both physical and conceptual distance to different kinds of critical distance as well as shifting relations between the past, present and future (e.g. how dimensions of the past may have suddenly been activated in this present moment). The subsequent group discussion will be co-hosted by PhD students Kerri Culhane and Naomi Gibson.
This event forms part of The Bartlett International Lecture Series Spring 2021.
