Ever since I was a child, I was fascinated by history. I think it was the idea of the past and transporting yourself to another time and recreating all the ghosts and events that could have transpired somewhere. I'm interested in history as a concept, how it is totally abstract yet influences everything that comes after it. Historical space is not real space; it is imagined or recreated. I think that America has an interesting relationship with history, compared to Europe. We are such a young nation comparatively and I think we are more prone to nostalgia and recreations and romanticising our past.
