I wrote my PhD on #crossbonesgraveyard, the most magical of places, and I'm currently in the process of working out what to do with all my research!
The ultimate dream is to write a book about Crossbones, so speaking that out into the universe... 💀

I've seen a few people making the move to other servers this week, and I'm wondering if I should do this too. I'm not really finding it all that chatty on here, so could this be my issue?
Maybe I'm just bad at this? 😅

Can we develop a hashtag to get #cemeterychat going? Is #cemeterytoot to on the nose? Thoughts?

Attendees took part in sensory activities, adding all their creations to a box labelled "The Archive". The mass of material was later built into a zine, with poems, pictures, photographs, and rubbings cut up and used to create each page.

Look at this detail on Giulio Salviati's grave here at #brookwoodcemetery. He very sadly died by suicide in 1898. Because his family business was a glass mosaic company based in London, these intricate panels were created by employees.

I'm an interdisciplinary scholar, and a core part of my work is historical research.
In October 2021, I curated an installation at #crossbonesgraveyard, telling the lost stories of people who'd been buried at the ground.
I'm interested in bringing forgotten aspects of history into the contemporary, and linking them with modern issues of marginality and social disparity.
This was the exhibition guide, cover illustrated by Emily Vanns 🖤
