Theme Description
From
the beginning of the nineteenth century, the middle-class domestic interior
arose as an addition to architecture, its concept involved with a professional
practice of covering and equipping an inside space provided by architects,
and also of representing this 'additional' interior condition. Generally,
the rise of the interior, from the nineteenth century is considered in
relation to categories of decorative style and is seen in a close relation
to categories of architectural style. Yet to consider the interior as
an addition to architecture opens new possibilities for its examination
in relation to another addition: the subject who inhabits the interior.
Papers in this session look outside of the discipline of architecture
to analyse smoke, philosophy and stage magic in order to produce new concepts
of the inhabiting subject as figured in and by the interior.
