He holds a Master’s degree from the University of Turin in agreement with the ‘La Venaria Reale’ Restoration Conservation Centre. His activity focuses on organic goods, with a specific expertise in the restoration of ethnographic and polymaterial goods (textiles, leather and assembled materials). This focus allows it to intervene on artifacts of complex composition. It operates in its own laboratory in synergy with colleagues specialized in different sectors, an approach that allows to jointly address complex interventions and multi-material works. His professional experience is articulated between international collaborations, such as interventions on archaeological finds in Saudi Arabia (AlUla), consultations in Ethiopia and Malta, and assignments at Italian cultural institutions.

Chiara Cubito

After graduating in 2014 from the CCR “La Venaria Reale”, I gained experience on sites and restoration laboratories in Piedmont, Valle d'Aosta and Milan. Meanwhile, out of personal and professional interest, I approached the world of cultural accessibility and obtained a short master's degree in Management of Cultural and Creative Enterprises in Bologna. 

Since 2019, following a national public competition, I have been an official conservative restoration at the Ministry of Culture. Over the years, I carried out a variety of activities at various institutional institutions related to the conservation, restoration, maintenance, lending, and exhibition of highly diverse cultural heritage, both in terms of material and history. I worked at the former Lombardy Museum Center, which manages some of the region's most important museums, and collaborated with the restoration laboratory of the Institute in Piedmont, while designing and overseeing the restoration of an important pictorial cycle owned by the City of Milan. For over a year, I have been responsible for the conservation and restoration office and the restoration laboratory of the National University Library of Turin. 

The role of MiC official has led me and continues to face new challenges and expand my skills and experience, and also allows me to work with various other professionals (architects, archaeologists, art historians, librarians, conservation scientists, transporters, registrars, administrative, etc.).
