Working as a Curator Michael is interested in challenging artists and inviting collaboration. This sensibility comes from working consistently with Leeds based art collective BLACK DOGS between 2007 and 2012.

 

Building partnerships with Art in Unusual Spaces CIC and North Lincolnshire Council in 2014 Michael opened his own art gallery and studio space called 3irty2wo, housing work and artists in a disused commercial property.
