Beyond Pa Hill : a photographic synthesis of remembrance & construction : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts at Massey University, Wellington, New Zealand

Abstract

How can archival and constructed photographs be synthesised to make the sensual and spatial memories of home tangible? Drawing on phenomenological memories of a particular domestic space, the unification of varying photographic practices is examined for the purposes of achieving a synthesis of remembrance and construction, relative to the original home and within the context of the contemporary still life.
