projects
Over the years, as well as creating work, exhibiting and teaching, I have
undertaken a number of paid projects and part-time positions in the field of contemporary art and glass. These have taken the
form of discreet events, presentations, curatorial, catalogue essays, etc., and ongoing part-time positions such as Artistic
Director for North Lands Creative Glass (2003-07). These projects and part-time positions have helped place glass in the broader
context, they are something I enjoy doing and have been very successful. They have included;
