Curation + Collaborations
Beyond my advertising career, I am passionate about discovering and promoting talented artists through curation and collaboration. As co-founder and curator of Higher Pitch and Art Sells, I launched Higher Pitch’s inaugural exhibition in 2010, providing a creative platform within the advertising industry. Over three years, Higher Pitch gained international recognition, featuring annual shows in London and at Cannes. I have continued to curate and produce group and solo exhibitions, including “There’s A Good Girl” at Saatchi & Saatchi, “Lost & Found” during London Fashion Week, and the solo show “Fastidious Journey” in Clerkenwell (April 2016). Printmaking and visual experimentation are ongoing passions. I create striking visuals that blend typography and illustration, collaborating on a range of limited-edition posters exhibited as part of these projects.

Limited Edition prints for the David Bowie memorial - crowdfunding campaign. These limited-edition prints are currently part of a crowdfunding campaign in which a few emerging artists have created new work for a David Bowie memorial to be built in Brixton later this year. Collaborating with artist Daniel Fisher, I selected archive images to create a series that captures Bowie’s different transitions across three decades. Inspired by Bowie’s artistic collaborations, including Mic Rock and David Mallet’s video clips, the images were brought to life with whimsical illustrations and embrace some of Bowie’s impressionist lyrics & songs.

Martini Mandate was an independent project I worked on. I was briefed to find a visual look and develop one cocktail recipe design for a sassy coffee table book being commissioned for a hotel. I discovered up-and-coming illustrator Ndumiso Nyoni from South Africa and worked with him remotely to develop this stylish visual to set the tone for additional recipes for the book. Along with securing an artist, I consulted for the brand and sourced suitable production and printing companies to work with.
