Manchester Contemporary

From 28th – 31st October I will be showing ‘Temporary Measure’ with Axis at The Manchester Contemporary art fair.

Before that, Cardboard Folly will be on display at the Bluecoat from 21st October, so this week will be mainly getting work printed and collating copies. There is so much to do but I have some fantastic artists involved and the work that has already arrived is really great.

The artists involved are:

Jo Ball | Lucy Brown | Nick Cass | Damian Cruikshank | Birgit Deubner | Sarra Facey | Rebecca Foster | Emma Gregory | Kevin Hunt | Nathan Jones | Tabitha Moses | Gordon Shrigley | Emily Speed | Frances Stacey | Kirsty Tinkler | Andrew Warstat | Sinta Werner | Rich White.

On top of that workload, my twin sister is opening a new business, Recrafted, consisting of workshops and a shop selling handmade British craft. It’s already looking amazing, but I have more painting and hand-painted signs to create before the opening on the 15th October. She’s very talented and I’m very pleased she is taking such a big leap to do this. Cupcakes over the opening weekend, so if you’re in the area come and say hi!

Lost at Sea – new book!

Lost at Sea is ready, just in time for the opening of ‘Climate for Change’ opening at FACT, Liverpool on Thursday 12th March. The book looks at those historic buildings that have been left behind with development, and as a result sit amidst incongruous new architecture or simply just alone.
The ‘dusty islands’ perch on precarious platforms above the sea.

Inkjet printed, stitched booklet housed in a tracing paper bottle envelope.
Edition of 20, priced at £7.50 from the FACT bookshop.
