I will be exhibiting my new ‘Womb with a View’ etchings as part of the City&Guilds of London Art School stand from 11th - 14th Feb as part of the Works on Paper Fair 2015. I will also be doing practical demonstrations in Intaglio with the public.
I will have some work in the group show; Crafting Anatomies at the Bonington Gallery 7th Jan - 4th Feb 2015.
Crafting Anatomies places the human body at the centre of a multi-disciplinary dialogue; exploring how this entity has been interpreted, crafted and reimagined in historical, contemporary and future contexts.

We had a wonderful turnout of over 400 people and got to work with some fantastic artists, such as the Chapman Brothers, Jonny Briggs, Dick Jewell and Mark Hampson to name but a few!

Fellowship Exhibition ~ City and Guilds of London Art School
I am premiering a new body of work called ‘The Cadaver Room’ at City and Guilds of London Art School, as my three year Research Fellowship comes to an end. I would be delighted if you could attend the exhibition, where my work will be showcased alongside graduating MA students of the School of Fine Art.
'The Cadaver Room’ explores the transgressive relationship between the animal and the human forms - stripping both back to their raw, most abject, primitive forms. The work seeks a common trait - the orifices - for it is within these orifices that the confines of the body are overcome. The body of work consists of a central alter piece sculpture - a 14 sided sphere, upon where the boundaries of each facet divide one body from the other at their points of intersection. Nets have been printed from the sculpture and provide an ordered dissection of the piece. In these we see the grotesque body laid out, unraveled and exposed.
Dates for the show are as follows:
Wednesday 11 September 5pm - 9pm Private View
Thursday 12 September 10am - 7.30pm
Friday 13 September 10am - 7.30pm
Saturday 14 September 10am - 5pm
Sunday 15 September 10am - 5pm
City and Guilds of London Art School,
124 Kennington Park Road,
London,
SE11 4DJ
New work in production - 14 plate etching. Will be complete, and ready for my show at City and Guilds Art School as part of my Fellowship in September. Details of show to follow.
