About Me

Art to wear? Art hang on the wall? Art to sit on a plinth? I work with light, colour, texture and form in whatever materials are appropriate to the project in hand.

My Edinburgh festival exhibition finished some months ago. It was A Bestiary of Authors , photographs of science fiction authors and hung in the bookshop Transreal Fiction as part of their 10th anniversary celebrations. The main set of photographs are still haning in the shop and you can see (and buy!) about half the Bestiary on my website We're currently planning another for August this year called Alien Surfaces.
