Rome

Liz Rideal’s Leverhulme Fellowship entitled Splicing Time focuses on Rome and the Roman Campagna. She is creating and discovering connections between contemporary and archived photographs, prints, maps and artworks held in archives and collections, particularly that of the British School at Rome.

Rideal's objective is to create images, curate period photographs and organise these into an interactive digital map of Rome and the Campagna. She draws together academic and contemporary strands of data in order to visualize layers of time by interfacing with Google maps using hyperlinks and geographical references.
