Advisory

Eva-Maria Spampinato brings extensive interdisciplinary training in art, craft, design, and history to guide clients through strategy, development, and creative direction. Drawing on more than two decades of practical, academic, and professional experience - from art conservation and studio practice to teaching, scholarship, and consulting - she works closely with individuals, businesses, and organisations to achieve their specific goals with integrity and depth.

Her advisory work is grounded in the understanding that art and craft lineages remain woven into the fabric of everyday life, and that restoring these connections strengthens contemporary practice, enterprise, and community. By integrating tangible and intangible knowledge from material cultures, visual and textual traditions, and hands-on expertise, she helps clients thrive, bringing strategy and modern methods to education and industry.

Eva-Maria advises renowned artists on studio practice, archives, and development, and works with collectors and heritage craft organisations worldwide. She gives talks internationally on the history of art technology, colour, and experimentation across art, craft, design, and science. Her advisory practice is inseparable from her ongoing studio research and her commitment to artisanal knowledge. She is the founding
editor of Thrift Art Journal. Client work is confidential.
