pubs.rights-statement	The three contributions to group exhibitions excavationsite: water realised at the Centre of Classical and Near Eastern Studies (CCANESA) 10 July - 1 December 2013, excavationsite: the Mediterranean Diaries, realised at the Nicholson Museum 1 Nov 2012 - 1 Nov 2015, Sydney and the photo media installation excavationsite: blue realised at the FCA Gallery in the University of Wollongong 17 Aug. - 8 Sept. 2011 all relate to a single body of research derived from an archaeological field trip in Pathos Cyprus. My involvement in the excavation and documentation of the ancient theatre research was focussed on developing a concept of a double architecture that relates to buildings being layered on top of each other. In this example a Venetian theatre had been built upon a Roman theatre, which had in turn been built on a Greek Theatre. This research expands my ongoing investigation into the phenomenon of the architectural doppelganger from the perspective of site rather than subject and argues through close readings of these theatres that it is another variation of an architecture doppelganger. This specific field of observation and analysis comprises an expansion of the notion of the architectural doppelganger as one of ‘original and copy’ and rather suggests that the double is very rarely an identical twin or ‘faithful’ reconstruction but is much more likely to present as an uncanny construction, realised across several sites and temporalities. The research is valuable as it connects new contemporary spatial theory with a deep historical context and adds a further dimension to my work on the double space.	en_US
