There was a very good presentation at the IfA conference in Reading a couple of years ago by an artist who had who had worked with archaeologists and made moulds from
trenches after the excavations had been completed. Sorry but I can't remember his name or the site.

Hi there
Although there are now many examples of residencies by artists in archaeological environments, I was wondering if list members know of any archaeological 'residencies' in contemporary art environments (whether festival, studio, gallery, street etc)? What
form did / could these take? What made them specifically archaeological? What were the outcomes? Thanks everyone!
Cheers, Antonia
