Ana Ribeiro is a Time-based media conservator at Tate, London. Ana studied Conservation and Restoration in Lisbon (FCT-UNL) and trained in media conservation at the S.M.A.K (Ghent), NiMK (Amsterdam) and Tate where she now coordinates the acquisition of new time-based media artworks joining the collection. Since 2016 Ana has been caring for performance-based artworks and their communities, such as Lee Mingwei’s Our Labyrinth, and recently she has focused on the preservation of choreographic works and the conditions to sustain them in a museum context, contributing to the Precarious Movements project as Institutional Associate Researcher. Ana is interested in understanding how Degrowth principles can allow for a more reflective, just and responsible conservation practice in the museum. (2025)
