And, just incase you were wondering, the artwork is temporary

[Heritage&MuseumStudies@Ulster @MuseumStudiesUU]

Massively impressed by The Kindred Collective project with the talented artist @joecaslin and @nerve_centre. If you can, get to @NationalTrustNI Downhill @ArtsCouncilNI.

[Heritage&MuseumStudies@Ulster @MuseumStudiesUU]

The Kindred Collective wanted Downhill & Mussenden as the site for their intervention and the @nationaltrust welcomed them in. @NationalTrustNI. Reminding us of the potential to keep our heritage buildings relevant.

@valeriewilson57 @V_and_A @BloomsburyBooks Really enjoying it @valeriewilson57. I bought it in the @folkparkomagh shop, (along with a book on tweed). I’ll certainly be recommending it to MA students and pals.

[Heritage&MuseumStudies@Ulster @MuseumStudiesUU]

Heading off for 2 days @V_and_A accompanied by appropriate reading, a curator’s autobiography. Read opening pages and already completely mesmerised. @BloomsburyBooks

In 2018 I wrote about silence, memory and being heard, with particular reference to #SilentTestimony in this open access article https://t.co/N83D0ZkW01

[Heritage&MuseumStudies@Ulster @MuseumStudiesUU]

Impacts every time. So glad to pause my race around London places to sit and think in #SilentTestimoney @NPGLondon @colin_davidson
