above, work for On the Shelf by Stuart Edmundson, Laurence Lane, Martin Vincent, Pavel Buchler, Ken Chu, Ian Rawlinson and David Bellingham On the Shelf is a collaboration with Paul Harfleet which explored the nature of artists networks. For the tenth anniversary of Rogue open studios I invited all the artists I had contact details for to take part in a group show. All the work I received was placed in the order it arrived on a single shelf which ran around the interior wall of my studio space. Over eighty artists took part with artists sending work from Manchester, London, Sheffield, Cardiff, Sydney, Tokyo, New York, Budapest, Glasgow and Dublin.
