- Title
Seeing, Thinking, Mapping, Moving: Considerations of Space in Visual Culture.
- Authors
Richardson, Jack
- Abstract
This paper argues that the ‘field’ of visual culture is already a spatialized construction in that the visual occupies social space. Space is taken up as an active component of seeing and thinking that, if considered as such, cannot be overlooked when considering meaning in relation to the visual. The paper concludes with the proposition that perhaps the process of studying visual media should proceed as a fluid examination of the spaces, people, ideas, and images that are constantly being both consumed and produced simultaneously, making any meaning derived from their study both idiosyncratic and always changing.
