Hello everyone!
Looking forward to the course – my name is Marie-Therese, and I’m a museum curator in the UK, working at Durham Cathedral – a living, active church; a visitor attraction, and part of a World Heritage Site! We’re exploring introducing public artwork within the historical spaces, and a recent example I saw of this that worked really well was at Canterbury Cathedral. It was a sound and light installation in the Chapter House by artist Howard Griffin called ‘Liminality’, and it really transformed the space itself and how visitors interacted with it – which is exactly the sort of thing we want to do!
