I am a multidisciplinary conceptual artist. I am currently, but not exclusively, working with contemporary mosaic inspired by Byzantine and neolithic art.

Gloucester has been said to be 'the lion that never roared' - I believe that this is certainly true in the visual arts. I am increasingly aware of a great wealth of talented and experienced practising artists working in the city, but working separately and not linked as a community. I am part of a nascent and growing group of such artists - early days and who knows where this will lead.
