Lumen at Artshow Busan 2013
Just got this image of Lumen / lacquered kandy from James Freeman at the end of Artshow Busan. Great to have the work exhibited there…
Myriad / LP
I’ve been working on a new series, entitled Myriad, and thought I’d post a few images online. I think they’re just about ready to view, although I may kick them around a little more this autumn. In due course, I’ll edition a couple as square pieces, with knocked out centres, perhaps at 70cm sq and 120cm sq. I hope they’re redolent of a record sleeve, the generic kind where you have to read the label to know what the disc is.
Inspired, Ashton Court, July 2013
An exhibition of beautiful bespoke wooden furniture, by some of the UKs finest makers, alongside art and photography. Featuring work by the renowned maker John Makepeace, photography by Barry Cawston, and six or eight of my own pieces.

April Grieman, Tomato, Tony Cragg and American Metalflake / drawing digitally in a material world
Artist’s talk at Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution, Bath Thursday 2nd May, 2013, at 7.30pm Sue Wales, Bath Society of Artists, has asked me to talk about digital art, as I’ve experienced it, over the last 30 years. I’m intending to discuss some of the work that has influenced me, as well as talking about the ideas and processes behind a few of my own recent pieces.
New website completed / v3.0
With months of gritty image editing, and far too much time spent checking style sheets, my latest website is up and running / v3.0. Made with Adobe Muse, I hope it’ll be a more agile container for the work I’m making than the previous offering.
20 / 21 at The Royal College of Art
Pleased to be exhibiting new works, including Spinnaker and Radial / 3 at The Royal College of Art’s 20 / 21 International Art Fair. The work will be showing with Milly Longin, aka The Art Movement. Milly was the first person to show my work at a fair, back in 2005, so it’s good to be showing with her again this year.
Generator at the Catto Gallery
Generator, a solo show of new work, was my second exhibition at Catto, featuring a number of laser cut pieces designed to be more sculptural on the wall.

Spectra 1 / Huffington Post
“Shoreditch, essentially, is the ideal setting for SPETRA 1: the first in a three part survey, as it has been coined, of dynamic colour use in contemporary art. Presented by The Future Tense - which acts as a springboard for emerging artists and specialises in the pop-up art gallery phenomena.”
