| summary | In ‘Walking Here & There’, artist Simon Pope and psychologist Vaughan Bell investigate the interaction of place and memory in psychosis, and particularly in reduplicative paramnesia, the delusional belief that a place exists in two or more locations simultaneously. The project's immediate aims are to develop an experimental framework through which to explore this otherwise exceptional condition, and through this to investigate relationships between space, place, mobility, delusion and memory. These themes are further developed in Pope's solo-exhibition, 'Gallery Space Recall' at Chapter in Cardiff, (6th-7th November 2006). ‘Walking Here And There’ is a research & development project supported by the Wellcome Trust's SciArt Fund.
Vaughan Bell is a clinical psychologist in training and researcher studying the neuropsychology of delusions. He currently works between the Institute of Psychiatry and the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust. Simon Pope is an artist researching walking as a contemporary visual art practice. He is a Research Associate at Goldsmiths’ Digital Studios and Transmedia Brussels, a Senior Lecturer at Cardiff School of Art & Design, and former NESTA Fellow. |
