Rachel and Matt
Rachel Souhami is a museums consultant and academic, specialising in exhibition production. She has over 20 years’ experience advising organisations on projects from master-planning museums and commissioning new galleries to one-case displays. Her academic work explores the dual nature of exhibitions as cultural product and cultural producer. Rachel has produced Museums Showoff since its third ever show in September 2012, and has been responsible for all aspects of its development and operation. She has developed lots of skills as producer of Museums Showoff, including learning HTML and CSS to build this website! This year Rachel’s also learning cabinet making and roller blading, but not at the same time.
Matt White is a London-based designer and the human behind Catlips Creative. he works with museums, galleries, dance companies and all sorts of cultural organisations to make their ideas shine through design, motion, video and 3D. Before going freelance, he spent years in the museum world, which means he understand the quirks (and deadlines!) of the sector inside out. These days, he loves helping arts and heritage projects tell their stories in ways that feel fresh, playful and full of character.
