I felt very encouraged by the fact that the spirit of a community working together is still very possible in Central London today! London Morgan, the official dealership for the country's last independent family-owned car manufacturer, the Morgan Motor Company, exhibited my work in their showroom which is based in a cobbled mews in South Kensington, that is shares with other residents and businesses.
I realised that the process behind the making of these effortlessly stylish cars rhymed with what I did at the studio - a very traditional method of hand crafted car building with a contemporary finish, like the use of age old oil paints to create contemporary artwork, as in my case. I also realised the importance of cities to these cars as to my inspiration for work. It was wonderful that we could take these connections further to bring about this exhibition!
