Exhibitions
Presented & curated group exhibition 'After Eden' for Herrick Gallery's programme in 2018. The exhibition celebrated the diversity and richness of the natural world and hinted at its fate and potential decline at the hands of man. We carefully curated a collection of artists that explore these concepts, investigating the complex relationship between man and nature and the potential consequences of the human pursuit for knowledge and power. 'After Eden' uses the fall of man after his banishment from paradise as a starting point for a broader discussion about the state of the world we live in today. Artists included Anouska Beckwith, Orlanda Broom, Kristjana Williams and Marc Quinn.
Commissioned to curate an international group exhibition at START art fair at Saatchi Gallery in 2017. The exhibition investigates the spiritual connotations of the totem as an object invested in ritualistic dimensions. The eclectic selection of artists each took a disparate approach to the notion of the sacred in their practices. Participating artists included Anida Yoeu Ali, David Batchelor, James Hopkins, Lorenzo Vitturi, Saad Qureshi and Yarisal & Kublitz.
Commissioned by START Art Fair 2016, we curated an exhibition at Saatchi Gallery showcasing a diverse selection of engaging artworks produced by emerging artists from Taiwan. 'Future Island' captured the forward-thinking and unique identity of this vibrant contemporary art scene in Taiwan. The exhibition was officially opened by Nigel Hurst, former CEO of Saatchi Gallery, Niru Ratnam, START Fair Director, David Ciclitira, Founder of START, and Director Wang, from the Ministry of Culture in Taiwan.

Autistica charity exhibition | Frieze Art Fair | Deutsche Bank
In conjunction with Frieze Art Fair, leading autism research charity Autistica approached us to help curate and organise an exhibition 'An Infinitely Beautiful Mind' to raise funds for the charity. A pro-bono endeavour, we drew on our large network of artists to select artworks that celebrated and explored an alternative way of seeing and experiencing the world. The artists shared a collective desire to represent human experience through detailed and highly laborious artistic techniques.
Supported and endorsed by Deutsche Bank as their 'Charity of the Year' in 2016, we also organised and hosted a private event for charity patrons and special guests of Deutsche Bank.
