Happy News!

Afterlife has been chosen for an art exhibition taking place at BLOC Projects, Sheffield.

My artwork will appear in Part II THE SECOND HALF.
17 – 25 April. PV Wednesday 22nd April 6-8pm.

Entitled First Round Proper, the show features many artists from near and afar.

From the curators:

It’s concerned with the question of painting. What is this thing called painting in 2026…
Painting is not; ‘doing the right thing’. Painting is not; designed to impress.
Painting is not; his or hers. 
‘Painting is; a breath on a mirror, a footprint, grease on a towel, blood on a stone, damp wallpaper,
torn advertising, meaningless graffiti, melting snow, dead leaves, weathered paint, broken
windows, neglected gardens, a cry, a smile, a scream, defacement on defacement.’ 
John Hoyland.

A BELL IS A CUP… UNTIL IT IS STRUCK,
In February 2025 we staged the first incarnation of this curatorial project.
That exhibition was truly international. Artists from across the UK and Europe.
Exhilarating and exciting.
A conversation about image making and contemporary studio practise that choose to identify itself
as ‘painting’.
