TECHNOLOGICAL STUDY
A technological study consists in objective observations and examinations of the materiality of an artwork. This step leads to a better understanding of the nature of a piece and its history. Those informations gathered allows to build an appropriate proposal treatment for each work of art. Based on this study, our stdio can provide a condition report or advices on the conservation state of an artwork.

Since 2018, she has been specializing herself into the cleaning of sensitive surfaces through the study of pH and conductivity properties of water sensitive materials. She worked for the research project of Modern Paints in Spain (MoPaS) initiated in ESCyRA, and on the PHySICAL mock-up collection during an internship at the scientific laboratory of the Royal Institute of Cultural Heritage (KIK-IRPA), Brussels (2020-2021).

Prior to co-founding CARe-Studio Satenik was working in private Conservation Studios and Institutions for more then 10 years, such as Contemporary Conservation Ltd. in New York, Bacon Studios in Berlin or the Kunstmuseum Basel.

Satenik graduated from the Academy of fine Art Vienna, Austria with a MA in Conservation of Modern Materials and Media, where she researched materials like phenol formaldehyde and polystyrene foam or silicone rubber and presented her research at the Future Talks in Munich. Works of contemporary art not only embody a crucial expression and testimony of our time and culture, they also represent veritable and unique experiments with nontraditional material, innovative technologies, and unusual application. Conservation of contemporary art requires an investigation into these materials and to understand the fabrication process and ageing properties as well as the artists intention before considering any treatment.
