Nothing Can Ever Be The Same will be on display as part of the Aesthetica Art Prize 2025 at York Art Gallery from 19 Sep 2025 — 25 Jan 2026

This site documents my continuing fascination for making computer-based work using generative and automated systems to create objects which exist digitaly, physically and sometimes both.
