I’m very happy to be contributing my work ‘Morning Breeze’ to the Scoop Foundation Art Charity Auction 2013 for education and community development in India and Cambodia. The launch party will be at Film Base (Temple Bar, Dublin) from 6.30pm on Friday the 11th of October and the auction will take place there on Saturday 12th of October at 2pm. This is the second year I’m participating in this charity and I’m delighted the proceeds from the sale of my photograph will be helping a very worthy cause.

Looking forward to Independents Day 2013 Zine fair this Sunday 23rd of June (12-5) at the Food-Coop, 12 Newmarket Square, Dublin 8. I’ll be sharing a table with the Tinderbox network of which I’m a member and we’ll have copies for sale of ‘Gods and Monsters of tomorrow’, an art book in which I collaborated with the photograph above (‘Upside down world’). I’ll also have a copy of my book ‘Dublin Graffiti Walkers’ and some of my Dublin prints on display. Hope to see you there!

I’m very happy to have had one of my photographs published to illustrate a poem by Gearóid De Biotún in the February 2013 issue of Irish language magazine Comhar.

I am very excited about my first solo exhibition at the Brick Alley Cafe, 25 Essex St East, Temple Bar, Dublin, opening on January 30th. I’m delighted to have the opportunity to exhibit my work in such a nice and central venue. The exhibition features both my digital and analogue black and white work and shows different visions of Dublin, a city I very much love, from cityscapes, street scenes and portraits of Dublin people, to my more introspective, almost abstract works. The photographs were taken between 2010 and 2012. Will also have additional work at The Cat’s Miau shop on 74 Francis street during the month of March

Very happy to be taking part in a fundraising event for Crumlin’s children’s hospital on Sunday the 2nd of December at 8pm in Dublin Exchange. Theatre producer Lana Stukapova has compiled slide shows of my photographs and some by another photographer as a background for the wonderful saxophone playing of her son Denny. Hope you can come! Admission is free and there’s complimentary tea and cofee.

From the 20th to 24th February 2012 I took part in an exhibition with my photography club, Smena Photographic Society, in the Civic Offices, Dublin.
It was part of a calendar of events for the Festival of Russian Culture. The exhibition focused on street photography and I submitted two Russian-themed photos taken at the Dublin Zombie Walk 2011 and at the Occupy Dame Street protest. ‘Caroline records’ was taken in Rathmines, Dublin, and ‘New York’ at Middle abbey Street. the wonderful stencil art is by Irish street artist ADW, The photograph to my left is by Sergej Druzhinin.
