About
Site-integrity was developed by Julie Marsh through her practice-based PhD at the University of the Arts London in 2017 and has since evolved through projects realised across the UK and internationally. Julie is an artist-filmmaker and Reader in Artistic Research at the Centre for Research and Education in Arts and Media (CREAM) at the University of Westminster. Grounded in embodied, place-based enquiry, Site-integrity understands artistic practice as a means of thinking with and through place, generating new ways of encountering, performing and understanding the worlds we inhabit. Julie is also involved with The Deep Field Project, working at the intersection of contemporary art practice, ecology and social justice, and is an active member of HOMELandS (Hub on Migration, Exile, Languages and Spaces) at the University of Westminster.
All Site-integrity projects have been realised through ongoing technical collaboration with Jonny Fuller-Rowell, who completed an MA in Computational Arts at Goldsmiths in 2020. A key focus of his work is the design and fabrication of bespoke motorised rigs that function as both recording and playback devices. Rather than operating simply as technical tools, these apparatuses actively shape the creative process, bending and adapting to the conditions of each site and enabling the reflexive feedback loops central to the methodology. Research findings have been shared internationally through site-specific screenings, exhibitions, conferences and peer-reviewed publications.
