Solo Exhibition, France, 2023

It is my pleasure to announce that my current solo exhibition is now open at Galerie de l'Ancienne Poste, Toucy, France . The show opened in September and will run until early November 2023.

There are 30 x new pieces including new forms and surfaces.

The Gallery is open Thursdays - Sundays inclusive during the run.

'On Foot' September 2023 - London Group Exhibition, Curated by Jonathan Anderson. Offer Waterman Gallery.

On Foot, curated by Jonathan Anderson, brings contemporary artists into dialogue with iconic works of modern British art. Anderson’s own fashion designs for JW Anderson and LOEWE inhabit the spaces as viewers and bystanders to the works. Pieces from recent seasons have been chosen for the way in which they transform the body and give it sculptural potential. The exhibition unfolds like a walk through London, embracing the stark contrasts and unlikely juxtapositions that even a short journey through the city offers up.

Exhibiting Artists: Igshaan Adams, Frank Auerbach, Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, Hans Coper, Shawanda Corbett, Sara Flynn, Lucian Freud, Anthea Hamilton, Barbara Hepworth, Akiko Hirai, David Hockney, Leon Kossoff, Stanislava Kovalcikova, Florian Krewer, Doron Langberg, Jennifer Lee, L. S. Lowry, Henry Moore, Cedric Morris, Dame Magdalene Odundo, Walter Sickert, William Turnbull and Christopher Wood.

On Foot will be free and open to the public at 17 St George Street from 18 September until 28 October 2023.

London Exhibition Review November 2020

I am really grateful to Emma Crichton Miller for her review in The Design Edit magazine of my most recent London exhibition in Erskine Hall & Coe. It's been so difficult for people to travel to see work 'in the flesh', this take on the pots is all the more appreciated.

In October 2019 I undertook a month-long residency in Sasama, Japan.

Sasama is a beautiful place in rural Japan. The ethos behind the residency is that the participants experience real life in a rural village and I can vouch for the fact that it was a hugely enriching experience.

The residency was followed by my participation in the International Ceramic Festival which takes place every 2 years...details via the link below..
