Recent Highlights
Delighted that my artist's book Covid Road Signs (petri dish) has been selected for the forthcoming "Art, Science and Creativity" Book Art exhibition at Liverpool Central Library from September – October 2024.
My artist's book comprises an 8cm petri dish held closed by a medical tourniquet. Inside is a helix concertina that folds nearly circular.
The images are imaginary road signs that governments might have used to enhance awareness and adherence to the extraordinary restrictions we endured in 2020-21.
£30
