Dwell Time: a moving picture of mental health

My recent interview with Kerry Harker and Claire Irving, Founder and Artistic Director and Communities Director of the East Leeds Project is now live on Corridor 8. I spoke to them about how the project is gaining momentum and putting local makers at the centre of a new creative conversation about what life is like in the east of the city.
Read the full interview here.

My most recent review for Corridor 8 is now online: www.corridor8.co.uk/article/yoko-ono-at-leeds/

The exhibition is open 10am – 4pm Monday to Saturday until 14 March at Leeds Arts University

 

October and November have turned in to incredibly busy months, as I am working with theatre companies who are all touring in the autumn, including Third Angel (with 600 People) and Freedom Studios (with When We Were Brothers). I am also working with an exciting new theatre company, Two Tonne Theatre and promoting The Netherlands, their first full production touring Autumn 2018 and Spring 2019.  Two Tonne Theatre is lead by Artistic Director Iain Bloomfield, who many will know from his tenure at Theatre in the Mill, Bradford, where he supported thousands of emerging and established artists. This exciting new venture will see Iain continue to collaborate with practitioners on each production, and I am delighted to be working alongside such a brilliant team.  

I will be posting news here on the website, but have decided to keep my old blog going (and dust it off a little) for all my current writing, creative ideas and other bits and pieces. Here is the link:

After an update and slight redevelopment, I’m very happy to have this site back up and running. I’ll be uploading previous work and projects over the coming weeks, so please bear with me whilst it is a little on the empty side…If you would like to connect, please head over to the contact page!
