Muir Trust: Artist-in Residence, Buckinghamshire County Museum, 2005. For this residency Hogan was asked to react to an exhibition of seventeenth century portraits Buckinghamshire in the Civil War. She concentrated particularly on the figure of Sir Philip Wharton, as represented in an anonymous portrait of 1656, and created a parallel portrait of a modern political figure linked to Buckinghamshire — the Tory grandee, Lord Carrington. During sittings in Carrington's house and garden, an oral history recording was made with him from which extracts were incorporated alongside Hogan’s portraits in an exhibition at Buckinghamshire County Museum.
