Use and Ornament/
Artists’ Soup Kitchen-2021
A group show at Airspace Gallery with  a growing clay head and  raw clay photos. I was also invited to talk about my clay and community work at the Airspace Artists Soup Kitchen meal.

From Where I’m standing-2016
A group show at Swindon Museum and Art Gallery, with other ceramic artists which marked a change in my practice.  
I made work in response to the work of Richard Jefferies - the work was an installation which combined three generations of my family - me, mum and grandad - (who I never met)
I used my grandads poem, part of the folklore of our family. He loved Jefferies work.
