Descriptif
My creative practice focuses on voids found in regional historical narratives created by reluctance, racism, and colonial practices within museology. I hope to deepen local knowledge and foster a sense of community through the discovery and display of an interconnectedness that may not initially have been perceived to exist between various demographics of the places where I focus my research.
Using local archives, collections and regional museums as case studies, I will research the Lancaster slave trade and slave-produced goods from 1680 to 1865 and Black entertainers in Morecambe from 1850 to 1950. Throughout, I will discuss any challenges or opportunities I encounter with historical documents that are embedded within a structure that has various accessibility issues.
I will showcase my findings by curating two in-person exhibitions in Morecambe and Lancaster, utilising current site-specific curatorial designs and possible interventions to long-term displays, to flesh out the gaps left by the exclusion of local Black histories. This will create opportunities to communicate with the public and amplify marginalised people, with the intention to enhance our collective understanding of social history and democratise heritage sites.
