South Wales Echo Press Clipping

Sunday, December 18th, 2011
Posted in: Blog

I received this little press cutting via Mother Spike. Apparently one of her friends had spotted my name in the South Wales Echo last Monday, 12 December. Although it gives the impression that I was interviewed for the piece the first I heard of it was on Friday morning. It seems that the paper misquoted the news article about the ‘On The Map’ exhibition that I posted on Spikeworld last week. I’m not particularly bothered by that; being referred to as ‘Mr Dennis’ is rather discomforting though. It almost makes me sound like a grown up!!

To be honest I found it it a little odd that the South Wales Echo would run an article, no matter how small, about an exhibition in Hastings that doesn’t open for a good three months. Not that I’m complaining; it’s nice of them to give me a mention. Should they be so kind as to give me a shout out in the future though I hope they won’t be too shy to give me a call first. After all I don’t bite.

Guardian Website Coverage

It seems like word about the Cut-Click Mail Art exhibition at Milkwood is spreading around well and creating the time-lapse video of the installation has paid of  as it was posted on the Creative Review website earlier this week and has now featured on this posted on the Guardian website’s Cardiff pages.

FringeMK Catalogue

Sunday, August 15th, 2010
Posted in: Blog, Publications

I got my hands on a copy of the catalogue from the FringeMK exhibitions. It features my work ‘Blossom: The Space Between Us’ which was short-listed for the painting prize back in May.

Unfortunately I was unable to make it to the exhibition featuring the prize winning finalists Emma Talbot, Michele Fletcher, Jake Clark, and Brendan Lyons. Of course all of these artists feature in the catalogue too. It’s a lovely little book and if you’d like a copy for yourself you should contact the FringeMK organisers: www.fringemk.com.
