•     Preserving Sámi Heritage KX00ED78-3001 01.08.2021-31.12.2021  10 credits  (KXA20S1, ...) + -
  Learning outcomes of the course

  Through the conservation and restoration of Sámi artefacts, the textile and artefact conservators-to-be become acquainted with the special features of Sámi objects. The materials of Sámi artefacts mostly come from nature, and the preservation and management of items made from organic material require cultural knowledge and knowledge on how to work the materials. Traditionally, Sámi objects have always been made for a purpose: for clothing or as practical objects. The diversity of Arctic nature shows, for example, as a rich handicrafts tradition. Especially the reindeer, which is used both in soft and hard handicrafts, is an important source of materials.
  At the beginning of the course, the students will learn more about the history and the present of the Sámi and the origin of the Sámi Museum’s Collections. After this, they will examine the artefacts from the Sámi Museum, studying their condition and context or background information.

  Course contents

  Co-operation with the Sami museum Siida
  Collection history
  Repatriation
  Identity
  Contextualization
  Safe working with old collections
