My name is Yige. I am a third year History of Art student and the president of History of Art Society. My current research focuses on European religious paintings during the Protestant Reformation. Engaging both visual and doctrinal materials, I investigate the tensions and paradoxes between Christian theology and iconology. I enjoy adopting modern methods such as feminist theories and gender studies in my research, to synthesise the historical past and the present into a coherent whole, enabling a critical reciprocity within historical dialogues. I love reading ancient moral philosophy, political theories, Catholic and Protestant theology, and analytic philosophy.

Hi! My name is Cheryl and I’m the social secretary for the society. I’m currently a second year History of Art student, and my role primarily involves communicating with our members and managing social media! I’m a huge fan of landscape/nature paintings and recently I’ve also been researching into and writing about contemporary Asian art.
