Opere dal Mondo. October 18 2025 - January 18 2026

Antichi Chiostri Francescani, Via Dante Alighieri, Ravenna, Italy. Inauguration : October 18 2025

The 9th Biennale of Contemporary World Mosaic (IX Biennale di Mosaico Contemporaneo. ) held in the prestigious cloisters of Saint Francisco. 33 art works were selected from 24 countries.

My work is one of a recent series of Tree mosaics. The image of the tree is a universal symbol of life: and as such it never fails to inspire a sense of awe in me. Whatever the season, time of day, or moment in time. The tree’s continual power to renew itself is a beautiful visual metaphor for a perpetual affirmation of life - and it is marvellous!

1st International Mosaic Biennale. December 20. 2025 - March 16. 2026

Inauguration : December 20th. 2025 Exhibition Hall, Piazza Guglielmo, Monreale, Sicily, Italy

This exciting new world-wide event, showcases the work of 20 internationally renowned mosaic artists. It was created with the aim of celebrating the art of mosaic in all its forms, establishing a dialogue between traditional techniques and contemporary experimentation.The initiative was born with the aim of promoting a dialogue between the past and the future of mosaic art.

I was delighted to be selected, remembering being awestruck by the Byzantine mosaics in the nearby Cathedral many years ago. My two works continue my exploration of the theme of the Tree, using the same materials as in Byzantine times, to aim to re-create a similar feeling of awe when looking at them.

By experiencing wonderment when looking at art, life becomes more than just survival by existing, it can also encompass an expression of wonder at life itself. In this way, life is animated from being merely a question of existence ; because a sense of belief is created. Even to experience wonder as a fleeting moment, when looking say, at a mosaic, it can stay within the memory as a permanent fixture giving profound meaning to life.

The Harmonic Line - with Theodora Lenka May 2026 - March 2027

Galerie D’Art, Elaine M Goodwin, Couches, Burgundy, France.

It was a pleasure to invite the artist Theodora Lenka to exhibit with me under the title ‘The Harmonic Line’.

A few years ago, I had seen her work in her galleries deep in the Morvan area of Burgundy and was struck by the exploratory way she used paper, crayon and torn collage to express movement through time.

Eager to explore a more organic nature within mosaic myself, I envisaged an exhibition of dialogue between our two medias… seeking out rhythmical, fluid and melodic linear energy.
