A solo exhibition at MKgalerie.nl, Rotterdam, 27 August to 24 September. The show will feature new sugar and glass sculptures, a 15 meter long mural made out of salt dough, knotted and crochet wall pieces, and somehomemade jams from the 'Sensory Jam' and 'Urban Survival & Defense' series.

A four week programme of events at Space Station Sixty Five during July/August 2006, hosted by Mark McGowan with a rotation of curators including Dave Beech, Andrew Hunt, Ali McGilp and Sally O’Reilly. My contribution involved disturbing the peace with an army of cake decorators on the pavement outside the gallery, and its window being iced over as illustrated above.
