David Starley is working in Lister Park today. He has painted a view of the 1904 Bradford Exhibition and is now painting the 2025 view over the top. He will then 'excavate' through to reveal/blend the two. Art imitating archaeology @bradarch.bsky.social @uniofbradford.bsky.social @bradford2025.co.uk
Another glorious day in Lister Park, Bradford. Our excavation is next to the Parkrun start. @uniofbradford.bsky.social colleagues are helping marshal before we start digging. We are doing some talks at 2pm to explain the context of 1904 Bradford Exhibition in our pop-up venue in the Bandstand.

During Robyn and Simon's recent field work planning trip to Lake Ogawara, Northern Japan, they had the opportunity to visit the Towada Volcano, a highly eruptive force during the Late Palaeolithic which has now formed into a caldera.
