A wall is a vastly underestimated device. It has scale. It can be viewed from many angles. It is impressive. We tend to walk blindly past them. Not me. I love them. I use them in my work. I get to notice a great wall. Even when I am not [...]

Walls are just stuck there. Immobile, one dimensional, passive.
Rubbish. They are alive and all around us. They are outside and inside. They form the inside – they define the outside.  They can be at once forbidding and tantalising. They hold secrets. They invite and engage [...]

Is the world ready for real creativity? Sadly a misunderstood and very overused term – one that evokes a war of words waged by the winged devils of definition. But remember I don’t actually care what people think. To me – what I mean by creativity has become the [...]
