Living History

As working on many heritage sites for many years I got an experience in the – analogue and digital – reorientation and staging of historical architectural heritage.

I am a retired veterinary pathologist with a long-standing interest in sustainable technology and historic agriculture. I have 30 years experience interpreting farming to the public (the picture is from the 1990s).

I am an independent artist working directly with the public, using the traditional trade of silhouettes. I interpret  and demonstrate the role of portraiture, and society experiences with portraits, chiefly between 1700-1920 (Modern Era).

Interested primarily in the technology and crafts of the paleolithic period.

Bronze casting, metal smelting and filigree-work enthusiast.

Current projects: Early Bronze Age Copper Smelting in the Alps; Early Medieval Iron Smelting in Northeast Bavaria; Filigree jewelry of early medieval Great Moravia/Bohemia.
