New Mills Arts Trail

10th – 26th September 2021 

I am thrilled that my installation with Kirstie Adamson, ‘By Royal Decree’ will finally be showcased to the public, 18 months after it was
meant to be unveiled to the public.

It is designed with the idea that nature’s royals have issued a decree
to the human race to tell them they need to address climate change and reverse damage to the environment.

You will see our work at Morans Opticians
