Art history is social history and I will die on that hill. Read my latest blog on how the missing Franklin Expedition affected contemporary portrayals of the arctic in the 19th century. Also haunted polar bears. 🐻❄️

The #britishmuseum recent #silkroads exhibition made me think a lot about Aurel Stein, a significant 19th c. archeologist whose questionable choices we tried to bury as adeptly as the 2nd century shoes he pulled out the desert sands.📜

Anyone have any tips for getting a foot in the door in heritage work? I've been applying for almost two years, weekend job at the front desk at my local museum, picking up placements and volunteering in an archive but can't even get an interview - feel like I'm on a blacklist!

Working on a new blog about Ciudad Perdida, the Lost City of Colombia. The hardest hike of my life (by a long way) but definitely worth the pain!

One of my first and favourite blogs! I live down the road from Lyme Park in Stockport and often stop by for a coffee or walk through on a hike. Well worth a visit!

As a young professional attempting to enter the museums and heritage sector, I love to visit sites on weekends to keep a hand in during my job search. I also like to write about them! You can read these here: www.redactedmuseum.com/record/categ...
