My recent works reflect an ongoing interest in displacement and identity, and focus on the role that architecture plays within these categories. I have also been active as an exhibition organiser, curating the exhibitions ‘Grey Area’ at the Bonington Gallery in Nottingham (1998) and ‘Distance’ at the APT (Arts In Perpetuity Trust) Gallery in London (2007).
