Education & Art in Schools
Art Education makes up the majority of my participatory work and my experience in it is varied and comprehensive.
Most commonly I develop a series of workshops based on the requirements of each school; their ever changing contexts and objectives have made me confident at being flexible and reactive, and i’ve developed a large library of activities to draw upon.
Artistic Techniques Include

One common feature of these projects is creating permanent school artworks which are either influenced by or involve student I have worked with. In all instances I am responsible for devising, arranging materials and delivering workshops, and bring the experience of 12 years as a professional artist into the participatory contexts in which I work.
