Mariam Rosser-Owen Barakat Trust Museum Collections Scholar (1997-2001) Currently a fourth year doctoral student at the Oriental Institute, University of Oxford (studying the art and archaeology of Islamic Spain), Mariam read a Masters degree in Islamic Art and Archaeology before starting to work on this project. From 1997-1998 it was a full-time job, but since beginning the doctorate, work on this project has proceeded at a part-time pace. She has been solely responsible for researching, writing, designing and managing this site, as well as the related project of producing the Teaching Video, "Making Lustre Pottery with Alan Caiger-Smith". This has meant that a project that should have been up and running a few years ago, is only just now becoming available to students, but she hopes that all the hard work pays off, and that this will prove to be an invaluable educational resource. |
