“The Lower East Side holds a powerful attraction to me due to its long association with visual art. I had always felt that something was missing until the Lower East Side became a part of my artistic narrative. Venues such as Cuchifritos and ABC No Rio allowed that aim to be realized.”
Several words or thoughts have consolidated to form the foundation of my artistic interests.

The reasons for my interest in these ideas rest in the legacies of my cultural heritage as a Scot and a gay man.

Expression of these ideas may be through art-making, curatorial practice or the written word.
