Description: |
Conservation plays a vital role in safeguarding invaluable cultural heritage for future generations through a sustained commitment to care. This process encompasses two essential approaches: preventive and interventive conservation. The expertise of conservators extends beyond museums and is also applicable in our everyday lives, for example pest control. Supplemented with video playback, the roving exhibition features the principles of conservation and the scope of work of a conservator. Showcasing various scientific instruments used for conservation research and analysis, and four selected case studies with many self-explanatory photos, the exhibition provides a holistic understanding of conservation to visitors in a lively and story-telling manner. The roving exhibition also introduces common pests and useful tips for pest control at home, encouraging visitors to apply conservation practices into daily life and to raise public awareness of heritage conservation. |
