This year’s theme, “Identity and the Construction of Space,” explores how spaces shape selfhood and community, while revealing the often unseen power relations that structure spatial environments.

I'll be giving the keynote talk at our DECR Autumn Symposium on art and the senses. I'll be talking about my research methodology for Scented Visions: Smell in Art, 1850-1914 and how I turned my PhD thesis into a monograph and then a touring exhibition. Book Now for October 7th!
