A wonderful evening celebrating the opening of John Lyons' incredible show, Carnivalesque, at The Box, Plymouth His work is fantastic and he is such an interesting person to talk to - I can't properly articulate the magnetic quality of it, you need to come and see it

"John Lyons’ art leans away from our Westernised need to find and attach linear narrative. Lyons’ use of the unreal makes us consider art, and experience, from a multitude of different angles." My review of #Carnivalesque The Box, Plymouth theprsd.co.uk/2025/02/12/an-…

Fifth anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic 💙 We take a moment to reflect on this unique chapter in history and honour the experiences we've all shared. Smeaton’s Tower is lit yellow in remembrance of those we've lost, and in celebration of our community's resilience.

I’ve encountered Jyll Bradley’s work several times, though often as large outdoor sculptures; this is the first time I’ve seen her art where the work is predominantly inside. Read my full review of her show @TheBoxPlymouth via @WorldOfFad now >> fadmagazine.com/2025/04/09/a-l…
