Making:Archives – a case study of creative collaboration

Abstract

Campus since the inception of the Archive Service in 2008. She has embraced the opportunity to establish the Service across a wide range of Higher Education disciplines, with a particular focus on the use of collections in undergraduate teaching. Sarah's teaching role led her to complete a Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education in 2014. Sarah is a member of The National Archives Higher Education Archive Partnership Steering Group (HEAP) and outside of her university role supports Wheal Martyn Museum in the development of the archive of the China Clay History Society. Hannah Maughan, MA RCA, is a Senior Lecturer on the BA (Hons) Textile Design course at Falmouth University, where she has taught since 2003. Hannah established and leads the mixed media discipline within the course, with her teaching practice and research interests focusing on the past and present of embroidery, through the duality of traditional hand and contemporary digital design and making processes, and through social and cultural context. In 2016 Hannah received the Embroiderers' Guild Beryl Dean Award for Teaching Excellence in recognition of her subject commitment, her significant contribution to the teaching of embroidery at HE level, and for salvaging Hazel Sims' unique embroidery collection for the university archive.
