Supervisor in the Doctoral School

I am a expert appointed by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in the field of artistic craftsmanship, specializing in stained glass. I am involved in creating new stained glass works as well as conserving and restoring stained glass in a wide range of projects - from researching historic stained glass to conservation work in architectural structures. I have designed and implemented contemporary stained glass works in over 100 religious buildings. I conduct research and inventories of stained glass, with the participation of students from my workshop. I am particularly interested in ancient techniques of creating stained glass.
