It’s been one of the most exciting experiences of my life – to show my work at Saatchi Gallery. Exhibiting at Collect met all my expectations. As an emerging artist it gave me the exposure I need both on a macro level with a lot of national press including my Radio interview with Robert Elms on BBC London, and at a micro level I was able to meet collectors, curators, consultants and museum directors. I am also pleased that the National Museum of Norway are acquiring my first book Dead Man’s Patterns for their Special Collections having seen my installation. On an artistic note the experience has allowed me to evaluate and think of ways to develop the work for my upcoming solo London show at Margaret Street Gallery. This is the second time I have worked with the Crafts Council and I have to say it’s always a pleasure to see the level of high standard and professionalism. Lovely photos taken by Denis Laner, Deborah Goldman and Roy Hayward.
