I am an artist living in Carlisle. The different forms my work takes include performance, street action, video and installation. It is driven by moral and emotional concerns, some strands of which include the interpersonal, community and the family, as well as wider social and political issues. The aesthetic arises through giving expression to those concerns – not the other way round. I am also co-founding artist director of Matrix Art Projects Ltd. www.matrixartprojects.org
