A year since #VisibleSkin and a good moment to think about the long and complex history of visibility, representation, and power…
It is 1 year since the launch of 'Visible Skin: Rediscovering the Renaissance through Black Portraiture'. We were so proud to stage the exhibition across the @KingsCollegeLon Strand campus last year. Reminder that it is still available to view online here! bit.ly/3xgj8jM

Very exciting to see this new work on Skin!!!
Had a fantastic day listening to so many fascinating talks at the @GermanHistSoc conference. Huge thanks to the organisers, and to my co-panellists @hrfletcher_ and @reginemaritz, and chair @StefanHanss for being amazing historians and also for calming my pre-presentation nerves!

So exciting to see this game-changing piece by @PaoloGall0 out in the world, so many implications for #histSTM #twitterstorians thinking about knowledge, materiality, the politics of science and the ‘scientific revolution’…

Thank you @murphyhs2019. It has been a privilege to work with you all.
Gathering @KingsCollegeLon to bid farewell to @evelynwelch2013. A beautiful, bittersweet moment for @RenSkinKCL but a wonderful celebration of Evelyn's many accomplishments, and the clarity of vision, breadth of analysis, and depth of kindness we all know and love.

It’s not everyday your (award-winning!) brother makes a show about your research and then, during lockdown, turns it into a film….”
Day 1 was brought to a close with a captivating viewing of @lukemurphyattic 's film 'Written on Skin', choreographed in response to the Renaissance Skin project. Massive thanks to Luke for joining us for a Q&A, and for providing such an enthralling tribute to the project

2. Thank you, too, to our wonderful participants in yesterday's Multilingual London workshop! You've opened our ears in such fascinating ways to some of the polyphonic sounds of the early modern city.

It's been a busy but exciting week!

So grateful to @RenSkinKCL for this opportunity. A room full of fun, ideas, and insight (not to mention food...) for two whole days: what more can you ask for?! Thank you and congratulations to everyone involved on this fantastic, monumental project👏
Now to our final panel of the conference 'New Directions: Graduate Student Lightening Papers', chaired by our wonderful @murphyhs2019. So many thanks to #ECRs @lfreemanjones, @ClareMcLDavis, @krisztina_ilko and João Pereira de Matos for sharing your brilliant work @kingshistory

I was delighted to have had the opportunity to present about my research on ‘Adarga shields and the materiality of oryx hide’ at the closing conference of @RenSkinKCL @kingshistory. So many brilliant papers on Renaissance Skin! – at Camden Town, London
To bring a fantastic conference to a close, a talk from our PI @evelynwelch2013. Thank you to all who took part and made it such a rich, engaging event (and look out for the bejeweled puppy in the slide, who may be appearing in an exciting book coming soon!)
