CURATED PROJECTS

2010

DEADPAN, The Royal Standard, Liverpool

With a good glug of irony and a sarcastic nod, DEADPAN gave a kick up the arse to an utter mess of an art world at a point of oversaturisation by questioning strategies used by artists to make new work. Considering mimicry and the referential alongside the blatency of homage, DEADPAN presented with barefaced cheek a 'pastichised' viewpoint of art with lampooning consequences; providing a glimpse into the dirty world of satire within contemporary art today.

tiny touring round the world exhibition, various locations and The Bluecoat, Liverpool 

By pushing accepted nptions of collection, acquisition, production and display, the tiny touring round the world exhibition aimed to realise new modes of engagement, simultaneously on a global and minute scale. Working as an artist and curator within my current locality within the world at any given time, whilst forging international links between Liverpool and abroard.

Black Smoke Machine Gun Club, The Royal Standard, Liverpool

Working with Glasgow-based duo littlewhitehead during their residency at The Royal Standard as they radically transformed the gallery space, working in response to experiences and found items from their time in Liverpool.

SALE, The Royal Standard, Liverpool

SALE transformed the white walled galleries at The Royal Standard into an an 'Art Superstore' stocked with hundreds of artworks by over 80 artists from across the UK and beyond.  With constant special offers and fluctuating prices, SALE helped to tempt the gallery visitor into buying that 'must have' artwork. Utilising retail systems and language more commonly found in the supermarket and in turn questioning the nature of the commercial art world and how it functions.

NAVIGATOR, The Royal Standard, Liverpool
