The Industrial Networks of Early Colour Photography in Britain, 1890 to 1935

I am a part-time PhD student at the University of Liverpool. My research focuses on the plurality of early colour photographic processes in Britain before the consolidation of colour photography by major industrial companies in the 1930s. I am also Assistant Curator of Photography at the V&A. From 2020 to 2023 I worked on the expansion of the V&A Photography Centre, which opened in 2023 and is now the largest suite of galleries dedicated to photography in the UK.  

My supervisors are Prof Michelle Henning, University of Liverpool, and Dr Duncan Forbes, V&A.
