Jim is a multimedia artist based in London,
where he divides his time and energy between
printmaking, mosaic-making, teaching, writing
and music. His work is steeped in the surreal
and satirical, encompassing many different
media and ideas; but use of found or recycled
materials is always paramount. He exhibits
internationally, and his prints have been
awarded four prizes in major national exhibitions
– most recently in the 2007 Small Print Big
Impression exhibition in Leicester.
His prints and paintings appear in numerous
national exhibitions. In 2002 one of his mosaic
murals in London was shortlisted for a Camden
Design Award. At present he is working on a
series of mosaic murals for Addenbrookes
Hospital, Cambridge, and is involved in a large
and on-going public art project in various
hospitals in Kenya, recently the subject of a
short film The Art of Healing.
Jim’s prints can be seen at The Bankside
Gallery, London and at Byard Art in Cambridge.
His public mosaic can be seen in locations
around London and Cambridge, and in
unexpected places in Spain, Greece, Kenya,
and the USA.
