Interests

As a parallel acivity, I make experimental film works which explore our relationship to places, these are delivered via film festival or gallery installation. One of these was nominated for a BIFA in 2006 and another awarded a Red Mansion residency in China in 2003. My work formed part of the John Martin Exhibiton at Tate Britain in 2011.

I have a great interest in writers of ghostly 19th century fiction and run an M.R. James site, just for fun.
