Yuhong Zhang is a Paper Conservator at Artlab Australia, with particular expertise and interests in Western and Asian works on paper. After completing a Master of Cultural Materials Conservation in Melbourne, Yuhong relocated to Adelaide, undertaking a six-month internship with a private book conservator. She later worked as a project conservator at the State Library of South Australia before joining Artlab’s paper lab in 2023 as a full-time conservator.
Passionate about collaboration and professional development, Yuhong actively seeks to build relationships with those involved in the care of cultural materials—including conservators, curators, librarians, archivists, and volunteers. She has organised a couple of workshops for non-conservators on the care and handling of artworks. Her multilingual background has enabled her to build connections with conservation professionals in China and Japan and she also managed to contribute to translation projects for institutions in Australia and America.
