Comm\unity Exhibition For AWTF in partnership with Lauderdale House
Working with The Alexandra Wylie Tower Foundation to produce and acquire works of art as donations to be featured in a show of unity with members of the local Camden, Holloway, and Highgate community. These artworks were made by local artists, celebrities, professional artists, and members of the charity. Each work sold with 100% of profit for The Alexandra Wylie Tower Foundation.

Exhibition design for New Museum at Smithfield
With the new move to Smithfield taking place, my MA cohort worked to produce new exhibition displays pitches for the Museum of London. I focused on using the heritage of Smithfield while combining its current use as a lively nightclub scene to create a dynamic exhibition that changed throughout the day to represent the ''active'' times of the groups that have used Smithfield and continue to use Smithfield - from ravers to butchers, all were represented.
Sawubona - a participatory project
While working at the Alexandra Wylie Tower Foundation, I devised a program that saw local private school children meet with The Pilion Trust young homeless people. The common ground they found was superb and challenged preconceived notions on both sides. This project saw them use photography to create portraits of each other which showed their experience and showcased their views on who each other were. This culminated in a small exhibition at Lauderdale House.
