First of all there are the big exhibitions of usually around 50+ artists about my favourite subject: Emotional and cultural identity.
Wonderland at the V&A Museum of Childhood was an exhibition of works about fairytales, myths and legends from across the globe. It was opened by YBA Gavin Turk with Deborah Curtis from the House of Fairytales, and featured in the BBC World Service programme The Strand.
Dreams at the Freud Museum London dug into the human subconscious as well as the theories developed about it by Sigmund and Anna Freud. It was again kindly supported by the House of Fairytales, and US author Siri Hustvedt honoured us with a beautiful essay for our catalogue.
The Fishwick Papers at Forman's Smokehouse Gallery
was an exhibition curated for East London Printmakers about the printmaking heritage of Hackney Wick are as well as the traces and testimonies of its social and industrial past.
The visual works for
A Suite of Lighted Rooms at Pushkin House took inspiration from the lives and works of Russian writers and composers.
And for Loveletter to London
 at City Hall, supported by Jennette Arnold, Member of Assembly for North East London, artists portrayed their personal favourite spots in the capital.
Guns & Roses, a show of large scale banners in response to the 250th anniversary of the battle of Minden, travelled several European venues – as did Wonderland.

Then there are the smaller projects, like
Discoveries, which celebrated the secret spots of nature to be found in London, or our show of 13 artists reflecting on the experience of being 13years old, or The Heart of Hackney, a walk in video installation of hearts drawn by over 100 people stopped on the street, shown at Hackney Museum.
And
The Visitors is an ongoing fun-for-all project of tourist sculptures travelling around Europe over the years.

I hope you will enjoy a little tour around the site – and needless to say, it is always great to hear from artists or venues who would like to collaborate or
share ideas.

Please check out the current call for artists under Survival of the Fittest.
