Abstract

My approach to object-based study grew out of my work in textile conservation and museums, especially in the search for better understanding of unprovenanced and undated objects. In this work, I have striven to move beyond technical analysis and historical texts to get to the realm of cultural meanings. This talk will describe my methods through a structured series of examples
