Statement
I am an artist making work that incorporates installation, video, sound, sculpture, performance, & writing to explore the human condition. I investigate ways to immerse the audience in multi-layered psychological & physical situations.
I trained at Leeds College of Art & Design (Foundation), Glasgow School of Art (BA (Hons) Fine Art: Sculpture & Environmental Art) and Newcastle University (Masters of Fine Art).
My lived experience of eating distress & obsessive compulsive disorder informs the work I create & the way I work. Some of the consequences of living with these conditions are that rigour, routine & attention to detail are fundamental to my way of life, all of which are integral to my creative practice; using the constraints of systems, I allow chance & playful elements to create unexpected results.
My work is regularly exhibited in solo & group exhibitions across the UK, USA, Canada & South Korea & is contained in various public collections. I have a number of public artworks, been commissioned to produce site-specific work & have taken part in national & international residencies, consistently since 2005.

I found you blog searching for Lars cut rice paper. I love having firm rules like "eat X amount of protein" but I have learnt that all general statements are always wrong ;) and I have to be flexible, it really freaks me out. I hope things improve. Tom.
Thanks for your comment. Yeah, flexibility with certain things is definitely not one of my strengths. However I am trying and exposing myself to more situations where I need to be flexible. Hopefully it will become easier with time. Good luck in your quest for Lars cut rice paper - sounds intriguing!
