Meet the Team

  • Andre Tham

    PRESIDENT

    About 90% water, 10% caffeine. Dreams of being the on-set conservator for Wes Anderson’s movies or the conservator who cleans Michelangelo’s David every two months.

  • Klara Kific

    SECRETARY

    If you’re looking for a fun wannabe paintings conservator who loves to travel, talk movies, and destroy people in trivia, I’m your girl. It’s even cooler that I’m doing it all SUSTAINABLY!

  • Catia Single

    EVENTS OFFICER

    Such a bookworm they have me listed in the integrated pest management scheme.

  • Mahesa Riyutara

    EVENTS OFFICER

    Specialising in swab rolling and beaker swilling, Mahesa is (conditionally) well-equipped with caffeinated mindset and proteinaceous lunches to handle even the dirtiest of paintings and the most awkward social settings.

  • Andrea Isaac

    COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER

    Your next paper and photographic materials conservator. Most likely to be found humming to herself during treatment.

  • Emma Wadley

    SUSTAINABILITY OFFICER
