We've just begun a collection management project with Driving Creek, providing conservation and preservation expertise, supervision and collaboration with current staff, and ongoing database support.

We are incredibly excited about this opportunity to work with the vast collection at Driving Creek.

We highly recommend a visit, particularly for the current exhibition 'From the Collection: Pottery', running until the end of August. 🚃

Studio Izzo was lucky to travel to Wellington this week to catalogue and assess a large art collection. notonlyconservation

Removing fly spots, some before, during (a very artistic close up 😅) and after shots from work we have in the studio today. When fly spots are too dry or have been on the paint surface for a long time there is a lot of risk to remove the paint layer.

It's always incredibly satisfying seeing the transformation as the artwork is carefully cleaned.

Un modo diverso di andare a teatro

25/02/2026

Over the Christmas break, we had the privilege of carrying out gilding work at the beautiful and culturally significant, Isaac Theatre Royal. It’s always special to contribute to a building with so much history and significance to the community.

Our role was to do restoration work and take steps toward fully reintegrating the gilded elements as closely as possible to their original state.

Gilding requires patience, precision, and teamwork, and so much care went into every surface. A sincere thank you to the theatre’s team for their support and collaboration throughout the project, and especially to Director Greg Ward for his leadership and trust.

To our wonderful team, led by Carolina: thank you, Giulia, Siem, Nava, and young Ida, for your skill, dedication, and consistent hard work.

We’re grateful to have played a part in maintaining the Isaac Theatre Royal and helping ensure it continues to shine for audiences in the years ahead.
