Shortlist European Diversity Award - Hero of the Year

I was so thilled to hear this week that I have been shortlisted for the 2014 European Diversity Awards - Hero of the Year Sponsored by Unilever.

The last 12 months have brought an array of very exciting incredible commissions and projects that have enabled me to take my work to Qatar, South Africa, Bahrain, Ireland, Abu Dhabi and UK.
Without the tremendous support of my many patrons, funders, commissioners and artistic collaborators none of this would be possible, and this is a perfect moment to once again thank everyone who has so generously supported me to enable me to realise my artistic vision.
