“What characterises this new public art is engagement and participation. The walls between the elite who produce art and those who observe it are disappearing, and art has broken out. This kind of art is not something you choose to go and visit, it goes to make itself an audience.”

Sculptures for 2021
During the summer of 2021 I exhibited four large sculptures in different cities across the UK in various public art trails. The auction of these four sculptures made £36,500.00 for charity in September and October 2021
'Play' Sculpture Is Now The Derby Kids Camp Mascot!
My Ram sculpture 'Play' is now the mascot for Derby Kids’ Camp which is an entirely volunteer-run charity which provides free holidays for over 300 of Derbyshire’s most deserving children each year.
These children face huge challenges in their day-to-day lives: from poverty to bereavement; social interaction difficulties and the challenges of being a young carer. Their week at Derby Kids’ Camp gives them the chance to try out new activities, explore new surroundings, make new friends – and more importantly, enjoy being a kid!
