ABSTRACT
Situated within the North Transept of Liverpool Cathedral is the Memorial Chapel to the war dead. This work is situated within that place. It was created out of repeated immersements within the Chapel itself, of being in situ, anchored within that location as if for the first time. It acknowledges that place has priority as an inexhaustible source within which a person, who having placed themselves in the way of whatever place has to give, may be enabled to receive what has become hidden, obscured or deadened by over-thematisation. The author invites the readers to immerse themselves in like manner within their cathedral of choice, giving priority to place.
