Candle House

As part of a Taste of HOST the above image is currently exhibited at Huddersfield Train Station until 30th September, alongside work by other local artists in the lead up to the Huddersfield Open Studios Trail - HOST on the 8th and 9th September. During this weekend I will be based in the main house at the LBT, Huddersfield, sharing work from my current solo exhibition The Last Curtain Call.

Horse Drawn Journeys - a new and exciting project

I am about to begin a very exciting project which will see myself and Fabric Lenny using a range of professional filmmaking techniques, digital media, new technologies and visual arts to capture the journey of a horse drawn canal boat traveling from Leeds to Saltaire, along the Leeds to Liverpool Canal. This is the first time in 60 years that a horse has pulled a canal boat along this stretch of canal and I am very excited to get the opportunity to document it and produce creative works in response to the journey and the canal environment. Whilst investigating the route last week I could not resist taking pictures on my iPhone and I thought I would share a few ahead of the project....keep checking back for more images and further information on the project and the exhibition of produced works.
