Trosolwyg
Rydw i'n Athro Emeritws ers 2018. Mae fy ymchwil yn archwilio hanes a theori pensaernïaeth a'i chysylltiadau ehangach â diwylliant gweledol. Fy llyfr diweddaraf yw Shaping the Surface: Materiality and the History of British Architecture 1840-2000 (2022). Cyn hynny, adolygwyd fy astudiaeth bensaernïol a diwylliannol o ffenomen cysgod : Shadow-Makers: A Cultural History of Shadows in Architecture (2017), yn eang ac yn gadarnhaol. Rwyf hefyd wedi ysgrifennu monograffau sylweddol ar ddau o brif awduron celf Prydain, John Ruskin ac Adrian Stokes (roedd Stokes yn destun fy PhD - 2002). Ar wahân i gyhoeddiadau hyd llyfr, a chasgliadau wedi'u golygu, mae fy ymchwil wedi'i ledaenu'n eang mewn cyflwyniadau cynadleddau rhyngwladol, cyfnodolion wedi'u canoli, erthyglau, a phenodau llyfrau. Rwyf wedi bod yn olygydd ar Architectural Research Quarterly, yn ganolwr i nifer o gyfnodolion dysgedig, yn ddarllenwr i sawl cyhoeddwr, ac yn adolygydd cymheiriaid i'r AHRC ac Ymddiriedolaeth Leverhulme. Roeddwn bob amser yn ceisio gwneud cysylltiadau cryf rhwng fy ymchwil theori hanes, addysgu a goruchwylio doethurol, a fy Unedau dylunio-stiwdio bensaernïol yn fy swyddi amrywiol ym Mhrifysgol Newcastle (lle roeddwn yn Gyfarwyddwr Rhaglen BA Gradd) ac, o 2007, Prifysgol Caerdydd (lle bûm yn gwasanaethu fel BSc Cynullydd, a Chadeirydd y Grŵp Hanes Pensaernïol). Cyn mynd i mewn i'r academi ym 1995 mwynheais lawer o flynyddoedd cynhyrchiol mewn ymarfer pensaernïol llawn amser - yn Llundain yn bennaf. Rwy'n aelod o'r RIBA, yn Gymrawd Cymdeithas Frenhinol y Celfyddydau, yn Gymrawd y Gymdeithas Hanes Frenhinol, ac yn Gydymaith i elusen John Ruskin, Urdd San Siôr.
