Your hosts are those who have been caring for the collections in our absence- security and buildings teams. They’ve spent time making audio recordings of themselves talking while alone during their shifts. I have been working closely with them to create the audio and also to shape it into this series which you can now hear. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I knew that this project had all the ingredients to be good but I couldn’t know it would be quite so special. Through the eyes of these Caretakers, we are allowed a rare glimpse, not just into the closed museum spaces, and the quiet collections, but into the lives and reflections of the people who find themselves often the sole inhabitants of these usually thriving places.” - Eloise Moody, artist</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best wishes to all, Lara</div></body></html>
