    Elizabeth Edwards will discuss methodologies for analyzing photographs from difficult and contested histories, such as colonial encounters, in a way that reveals subjective experiences rather than reducing subjects to passive content. She will explore how a "critical forensics" approach can suggest ways photographs might reveal how everyday people experienced events the photos have come to represent. Drawing on approaches to Eastern European histories, Edwards seeks ways of thinking about photos that excavate the perspectives of social beings rather than stalling on issues of visual representation limits.

    Excavating Experience: Photographs and Difficult Histories

    Elizabeth Edwards (PhotoCLEC, University of the Arts London)


    East European Memory Studies Research Group Seminar
    Wednesday 2 February, 5:00pm
    CRASSH, Cambridge
    ABSTRACT
    This paper explores methodologies for thinking about photographs entangled in
    difficult and contested histories. It explores ways in which a critical forensics can be
    used in relation to photographs of everyday colonial encounter to suggest ways in
    which photographs might reveal subjective experiences of events.
    Drawing on methodologies developed in connection to Eastern European histories,
    the paper is concerned with how we might find ways of thinking about photographs in
    difficult histories, which do not simply stall us on questions of the limits of visual
    representation, or in reductionist arguments of spectacle or gaze which deliver the
    subject of the photograph as passive content. Rather it uses photographs to excavate
    the subjective experience of people as social beings who experienced events for
    which photographs have come to stand.
