STEPHANIE MOORE

MANAGER, OPERATIONS

I'm Manager, Operations at Artefact and I have worked in archaeology for 10 years, predominantly in NSW and occasionally further afield.

My role is to make sure our team has everything it needs in place to run effective and efficient excavations and heritage projects. 

I have a passion for Industrial Archaeology, particularly railway infrastructure, which I nurture through my work on various professional associations. I am currently Secretary of the National Scientific Committee on Industrial Heritage (ICOMOS/TICCIH) and a General Member of the National Trust Industrial Heritage Committee.

ABOUT

STEPHANIE

"Like many kids, I was gifted a book on Egyptian mummies at about 7 years old, and it was all over for me after that. I grew up fascinated by history and engrossed in the stories told by ruins in outback landscapes."

So, despite the many protests of “but is there anything left to dig up?”, I went for it – and I’ve never had anything to regret! I still have an inherent love for heritage, and I light up every time I visit a historic site or museum. I pair this love now with a passion for photography, capturing the beauty in urban landscapes and forgotten treasures.

MY ARTEFACT

My artefact is a vintage camera – a way to combine my two loves. This one was a gift from my partner and I’m fortunate enough to get to use it often. It’s a symbol of the power of image and memory. I am fascinated by historic photographs, often wondering about the daily lives of people and places they capture. Getting to contribute to this tradition in a tangible way, through film photography, is such a treat.
