Specialist note

One of the things we seem to finally be discovering in the 21st century is the vast scale and range of human subjectivity. And to me that means context is really significant. Context is like a frame, and I want to render frames visible, acknowledging limitations, point of view, and correcting the assumed frames of the past.
—Emily Mae Smith
