Updated design portfolio

I’ve been working on some interesting projects recently including DVD work for US performance group Goat Island and philospher and writer Hélène Cixous; conference exhibition work with the illustrator Marcus Oakley; and launching a new campaign with Jamie Catto opposing the UK arms trade called Stop Arming the World.

So I thought it really was time to update the design portfolio section of this site…

Thanks to everyone came along to the opening of the exhibition Supersingular last night in Stoke Newington. BHVU was packed and the beer ran out. The highlight of the evening had to be a fantastic set of French pop classics by the wonderful SURI ET LES COPAINS. Watch them perform Les Cactus at last night’s opening here! Thanks to everyone who helped, especially Charlotte Lindsay from BHVU.
