Up To Mischief


I thought that I’d give you an early mention of next month’s White Mischief event that I will be taking part in, as I’m assured that tickets for their parties often sell out early. Basically, I’m exhibiting my ‘City’ sculpture (which seems to be so popular at the moment that it’s been spending more time on show in one place or another than it has in my studio) and the carnival style cut-outs that myself and the photographer, Phil Sofer, made for one of last year’s Friday Late Views at the V&A Museum, London. Below is the info for the event that I lifted from the White Mischief site -
