On The Map Exhibition Photographs

Wednesday, April 11th, 2012
Posted in: Blog, Exhibitions

These are a few low resolution images that were sent to me of the ‘On The Map’ exhibition at Hastings Museum and Art Gallery.

A varied selection of maps from the Museum’s collection will be on display in the galleries until the 17 June 2012, including Samuel Cant’s 1746 Survey of Hastings, and William Gant’s 1852 Survey. An increasing number of contemporary artists are turning to cartography for inspiration, and this display features work by eighteen contemporary artists including my own ‘Hiraeth’.

The show will be on display for another two months so do take the time to pop in and see it if you’re in the area.

On the Map: Historic Maps & Contemporary Map Art
10 March – 17 June 2012
Hastings Museum and Art Gallery
Johns Place, Bohemia Road, Hastings, TN34 1ET

Eksperimentai Kvietimas 2011

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011
Posted in: Blog, Exhibitions

These are a selection of the photographs I took at the launch of the Experiments with Light exhibition at the Zalgiris Arena in Kaunas, Lithuania, last weekend.

I must confess that I was expecting a small turn out for the opening of this exhibition which was a satellite to the Kaunas Textile Biennial. I was rather shocked, and slightly humbled, to see several hundred people passing through the doors on the opening night alone to experience my work along with that of nearly 40 other international artists in the ultravioletly illuminated exhibition space.

Click the thumbnails to view the images in all their glory.

I’ll be posting some blog posts about the other wonderful exhibitions I encountered ay the Kaunas Biennial in the following few days so watch this space for more updates soon.
