The amount of ethnocentricity found in western museum practice is astounding, but not surprising. Curatorial and conservation methods are based on criteria which have been taught in western institutions. These practices are constructions of western values, applicable to western individuals. As long as works of art and cultural heritage continue to be treated as ‘objects’, original stakeholders are bound to consider treatments previously implemented to be improper. The author’s research on Javanese  Wayang Kulit  collections within western museums, both as conservator and curator, suggests how to decolonise certain museum practices, focusing here on storage, to raise awareness of ethnocentricity and to suggest an ontological reason for its origin.
