• Art and Architectural History



• Reconstructiing Emaki: Looking at History of Japanese Scroll Painting Through Art Conservation

I propose to study the history, methods and techniques of art conservation, specifically focused on paper and scroll conservation, in Kyoto, Japan. The academic portion of the study will be done at the Kyoto City University of Arts and the practical skills will be solidified through an internship at conservation studios in Kyoto and/or Nagoya. The combined project will provide me with specialized restoration skills needed at museums in the United States.
