Shadows & Echoes
Residency. An investigation into the nature of shadows and echoes. Crypt Gallery, St Pancras Church, London 2016
When I was a child I believed in shadows. I believed they copied us deliberately, and played tricks on us, they way they stretched out or hid secrets deep within them.

Facsimile
Covert Artist in Residence, Victoria & Albert Museum London 2015
Museums. Galleries. Off peak. Off season.The long hallways, past the metalwork. To the least frequented galleries and rooms, until, at last, perhaps I get the place to myself. I hear my thoughts. I can be overwhelmed by objects, eras, treasures. I can glance a lifetime's pursuit - a civilisation in a moment, in a cup, in a painting, I can defocus my eyes and listen.

Absolute Magnitude
International travelling art project.
Started as an idea in exhibition collaboration between MA fine art students studying with the Open College of the Arts, Absolute Magnitude largely coincided with the launch of theViewergallery.
Absolute Magnitude is the measure of a celestial object's intrinsic brightness, or an expression of a star’s luminosity.
It allows the true brightnesses of objects to be compared without regard to distance.
