I have been living and working in Western Europe since August 2006. Currently based in London.

The Contemporary Art Society of England has shortlisted my work for the Economist Plaza in central Piccadilly, London.

The Contemporary Art Society is the national non-profit agency that supports contemporary artists through the promotion of collecting and commissioning by individuals, and public and private bodies across the UK.

The Economist Building provides the only outdoor public exhibition space in Central London committed to a continuous program of sculptural works by contemporary artists. The commission is designed to showcase the work of young and emergent artists. This reflects The Contemporary Art Society's expertise in identifying promise and The Economist's reputation for being 'ahead of the curve'.

In 2007 – 2009, I will be participating in a collaborative project as part of ‘The Space In Between’ artists group. Tara Gilbee heads this fluid artist group with the aim of exploring the interstitial relations of art to its environment within collaborative practice. Artists have been invited to create work out of and in response to particular books. The above image is my addition to the show, 'Radiotransmision para aficionados'...a compendium of electrodes and diodes.

Other artists participating in this project include:
Penelope Aitken, Lauren Berkowitz, Chris Bond, Richard Butler-Bowden, Martina Coppley, Narrinda Cook, Gabby O Connor (NZ), Nick Devlin, Anna Finlayson, Juan Ford, Mandy Gunn, Andrew Goodman, Gracia Habby, Mark Hilton, Penelope Hunt, Louise Hubbard, Dr Greer Honeywell, Paul Irving, Louise Jennison, Ash Keating, Wendy Kelly, Anton Marin, Louiseann Zahra, Tamara Marwood, Karen Papacek (FR), Elisabeth Pressa, Kiron Robinson, Kylie Stillman, Fernanada Trias (UR), Aloma Treister, Penelope Trotter, Reinhart Vanhoe (NL), Hayley West…

Burghley is one of the largest and grandest mansions of the first Elizabethan Age. Impressive and imposing, it was built and mostly designed by William Cecil, Lord High Treasurer to Queen Elizabeth I, between 1555 and 1587. Set among 1300 acres of historic gardens including a herd of fallow dear, the sculpture park provides selected artists with the opportunity to create site-specific works.
Visitors are invited to explore the historical past and the contemporary simultaneously. Burghley also offers guided tours of the house, arts workshops, education programs, boating, angling, equestrian, and other things culinary.

Burghley is a member of The Treasure Houses of England and the Hidden England Group

Artists at Arena Design Centre, a complex of live/work warehouse spaces in Haringey, London have formed a working collective and Social Enterprise involving people from a range of creative fields, interests, and cultures. The future is looking bright for Arena Artists under the banner of 'Haringey Arts' as we have recently secured substantial funding for projects involving the community of Haringey and its creative talent. The first taster was a group show involving visual art, performance, sound, and happenings at the Foundry. Since then there have been further exhibitions and performances, along with workshops informing artists on a range of matters in the visual and performing arts, and music.
