Subject: Maori textiles
I am a textile conservator at Te Papa, Museum of New Zealand. Currently I am researching the degradation of traditionally dyed black fibre in Maori textiles. This research project is in collaboration with the British Museum and Industrial Research (N.Z.). I would be very interested in conversing with other conservators who have or are conserving this fibre. This research is investigating the types of treatments and their results.
