In this interview episode we speak to Sarah Hillary, a Fine Arts Conservator at the Conservation Research Centre at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. We approached Sarah during our investigation to discuss what a forensic examination of an artwork might involve, and gained a fascinating outlook into her team's process and specialist skill-set (as well as some incredible stories about high-profile restorations).
Find out more about the Conservation Research Centre on the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki website.

In this interview episode we speak to two former journalists behind two newspaper articles from December 1993 that proved pivotal to our investigation. We hear from former NZ Herald writer Rochelle Lockley about her time at Aotearoa's biggest paper (and how she went on to work for Telecom's biggest rival), as well as Dunedin-based Lee Harris, a former Arts Editor for the Otago Daily Times.
