Workshop on Conservation Techniques at Tokyo Geidai
In June 2025, I was invited as a Guest Professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Tokyo Geidai, where I taught the single thread bonding technique and introduced some materials used for dry cleaning in painting conservation.
Lecture on the Conservation of Artworks at Tomakomai City Museum
At the Tomakomai City Museum of Art and History in Hokkaido, I gave a lecture to a general audience introducing the fundamental ethics and methods of European painting restoration, as well as the work of conservators.
Retouching in the UK
I published the second article of the series “Retouching in European Paintings” in Mizunoo, a Japanese magazine on conservation and preservation. I looked at the retouching materials used in the UK, from traditional methods on Old Masters to newer approaches for contemporary art.
Assistance for the modular cleaning program
in 2023, I assisted the modular cleaning program led by Chris Stavroudis at the National Centre for ArtResearch in Tokyo. I provided English–Japanese interpretation during the hands-on sessions, helping instructors and participants share techniques in artifact cleaning and conservation while bridging the language gap in an international setting.
