I’m delighted to be showing work at Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, the leading international art fair for original contemporary print.

It’s a privilege to have been selected from over 6000 artists in their international open call. 50% of the fair is a Curated Hang exhibition of artists’ original work; the other 50% of the expansive fair is dedicated to leading galleries specialising in print.

The quality, ambition and technical virtuosity of the art and event itself is extraordinary. A programme of insightful talks, demonstrations and exhibition tours can be booked.
