She joined both the Arizona State Library and the <a href=\"https:\/\/ccp.arizona.edu\/collections\/preservation\/conservation-department\">Center for Creative Photography<\/a> as a conservation assistant and conservation technician in 2021.\u00a0 Sophie completed a M.A. in Art History in May 2019 at the University of Arizona. Her thesis research focused on the investigation of a sixteenth-century print by Ugo da Carpi from the University of Arizona Museum of Art\u2019s collection. With the assistance of Conservators Dana Hemmenway, Dana Tepper, and Dr. Nancy Odegaard, Sophie provided scientific data to support her art historical research using techniques such as x-ray fluorescence and x-radiography. Additionally, she learned intaglio printmaking and mimicked the methods of early modern printmakers to gain insight into the materials used. This collaborative research lead Sophie to conclude that the UAMA\u2019s print was not printed by Ugo da Carpi but by another workshop of this period after the artist&#8217;s death.\u00a0 In the image below, Sophie works in the conservation lab at the Arizona State Library in December 2021.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-square-image-large wp-image-1605 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/department-comparative-cultural-studies\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/333\/Sophie-Church-at-the-Arizona-State-Library-600x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/333\/Sophie-Church-at-the-Arizona-State-Library-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/333\/Sophie-Church-at-the-Arizona-State-Library-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/333\/Sophie-Church-at-the-Arizona-State-Library-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations to CCS alum Sophie Church (Art History emphasis with minors in Museum Studies, Studio Art, and Chemistry, 2017)!
