Curating:
In 2006 founder and director of Fieldgate Gallery, a large artist-run NFP space in Whitechapel, London. Since the space closed in 2008 I continued to curate under the name of Fieldgate gallery in a variety of off-site venues continuously until 2020. Information on the exhibitions and participating artists can be found at the gallery website: www.fieldgategallery.com
