My V&A/RCA MA research focused on the emergence of visible storage facilities as a strategic form of institutional self-presentation.

I also discussed these ideas in an article for the art and design magazine Portdolio (Hebrew), reflecting on the cultural and curatorial implications of visible storage.
 

I explored the V&A East Storehouse and similar facilities, examining how museums deploy what I term ‘preservation aesthetics’ – a distinctive visual language that transforms collection management into a branded experience. 

Alongside this research, I contributed an essay tracing the changing roles and contexts of a single textile display cabinet at the V&A, using its transformations to sketch the trajectory of open storage practices at the museum. I also curated and chaired a panel discussion on film as a primary research source during our final symposium at the V&A South Kensington.
