Some news…I am moving to Sydney, Australia in July to begin working as Director, Audience Engagement at the MCA Australia at the beginning of August. How excited am I! Lightsgoingon has been amazing these past four years and I have worked with so many brilliant people; but it feels like the right […]
It’s the end of my online 52 photography project – 29 men and 24 women (I know, it adds up to 53 people, but two of them work as a couple – the Bechers). It’s so enjoyable to do, to research and bring together a range of different kinds of approaches to photography. But I […]
My project entitled 52 is back! For some bizarre reason, I stopped doing it – the last post being back in February. Still muling over why that happened, and thats probably a blog post soon (maybe something in there about visibility). Anyway, Week Thirty Five is posted up – thanks to Mr H for the […]

I am chairing this discussion which promises to be really interesting. Organised by artist Tom Hall we will explore the way in which artists respond to […]
I am a speaker at this event, on Saturday 6 April, 12-6pm; looking at participation. I plan to talk about where participatory projects are placed or perceived within the art world; alongside the language used to describe projects and the impact of this. Looking forward to it! See here for more […]
Due to personal circumstances, I had to cancel the Spike Print Studio talk – but it will be rescheduled and I will post that new date and time up as soon as I know it!
Thank you and my apologies.
52
52 was a project I set myself; throughout 2013 and 2014, I sent out, via social media and my website, info and an image of a photographer of my choice. I did this to highlight and explore the range of photography that speaks to me, and I say why within each post.
