Memberships

Kristina developed a love of art, heritage and conservation from an early age while growing up in Tuebingen, Germany. Her conservation practice commenced with a traineeship with Ernst Lorch, Germany in 2001 - where she specialised in objects - before moving to Australia and augmenting her conservation experience with prop-making for film and theatre.

Kristina joined ICS in 2021 to work on objects and outdoor heritage, after previously working as a lecturer and workshop coordinator at the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA). Kristina is highly skilled in the construction, restoration and conservation of wooden objects, polychrome sculpture, and plastic objects in both lab and on-site settings.
