“I designed this poster around several of this year’s conference themes: Space Archaeology, Rock Art, Engendering Archaeology, and Storytelling. I wanted to illustrate the interconnectivity of the past, present, and future of archaeology by situating human activities within these thematic contexts. Each vignette is framed within strata, literally and metaphorically grounding the narrative while demonstrating its unique context.”
