My Dark Room: Spaces of the Inner Self in Eighteenth-Century England

Julie Julie Park (Scholar in Residence, 2017-18)

Julie Park explores places of solitude and enclosure that gave eighteenth-century subjects closer access to their inner worlds: grottos, writing closets, landscape follies, and the camera obscura, that beguiling “dark room” inside which the outside world in all its motion and color is projected.
