Stargazing and the Invisible: Photography and the Power of Obscured Light

包括英格兰艺术理事会在内的艺术资助者正在鼓励商业和艺术部门之间的合作。然而，解决两者的需要和不同工作方式的良好做法模式相对较少。天文学和摄影的深层文化联系以及他们对黑暗的共同迷恋提供了一个特别相关的研究背景。以女性空间的命题为出发点，研究将设计和测试一个创新的和身临其境的天文摄影实践。拟议的研究旨在提供艺术，商业产出和学术贡献，将作为其他跨部门合作伙伴关系的典范。

Arts Funders including Arts Council England are encouraging collaboration between business and artistic sectors. However, there are relatively few models of good practice in which the needs and different ways of working of both are resolved. The deep cultural connectedness of astronomy and photography and their shared fascination with darkness offers a particularly pertinent research context. Taking the proposition of female space as a starting point, the research will devise and test an innovative and immersive Astrophotography practice. The proposed research is designed to provide artistic.commercial outputs and academic contributions that will serve as a model for other cross-sector partnerships.
