Research summary
My main areas of research have related to the conservation of organic materials within museum collections. Particularly how the process of conservation is applied; from the use or excavation of an artefact, through to its display and storage in a museum context.
This has focussed on:
- the treatment of waterlogged wood and leather,
- the use of Data in conservation,
- the provision of suitable display environments,
- the management of pests in a Tropical environment and
- the documentation of traditional techniques of conservation in South East Asia.
