Lecture on the Conservation of Artworks at Tomakomai City Museum

At the Tomakomai City Museum, I presented on European painting restoration, introducing the public to its core principles and practices.
The talk covered restoration as both art and science, highlighting minimal intervention to preserve artworks for future generations.
Drawing on my experience, I shared insights into the skills and dedication required. Case studies illustrated the meticulous balance between scientific methods and artistic sensibility. I linked restoration to cultural heritage preservation, urging the audience to see it as a respectful dialogue between past and present.
My goal was to make restoration accessible and engaging, fostering a deeper appreciation of art conservation.
