Julie Marsh is an artist and researcher at the Centre for Research and Education in Arts and Media (CREAM), a world-leading centre in practice-based interdisciplinary practice. Through the exploration of real and representational space, Julie investigates how film and emerging technologies can ‘perform’ place, creating critical experiences for audiences that open debate and question social spaces. Her research is engaged with collaborative and knowledge-led approaches to field research, specifically exploring the ethics of technology as a tool for representation. In 2017, she coined the term ‘site-integrity’ as part of her practice-based PhD at London College of Communication, University of the Arts, London. Site-integrity is a site-specific and collaborative research methodology which presents 'place' as dualistically experienced and represented.

  • Site-integrity: a dynamic exchange between site, artist, device and audience (2019) author(s): JULIE MARSH published in: Journal for Artistic Research
    Site-integrity is a proposal for a working methodology - a particular but original mode of site-specific practice that potentiates a dynamic exchange between site, artist, device and audience. Non-haptic, non-temporal ways of representing place have come to dominate contemporary practice. When site is reduced to representation, the experiential qualities are lost. Site-integrity repositions the act of representation from its retrospective or projective dimensions towards that which is performed and is experiential. This exposition presents three specific projects; Assembly, Moving site/sight and Screen space that explore temporal relations with space and place via motorised recording/display devices. These projects are examples of artistic devices that contributes (not exclusively) to a specific practice - site-integrity.
