My latest project The Ballad of Skinny Lattes and Vintage Clothing has been awarded a research and development grant by Arts Council England. The new piece is an exploration of globalisation and gentrification… taking in a journey that begins on Wall Street in 2008 during the weekend of the Lehmann Brothers collapse and culminating in the financial crisis that besets us today. It charts the rise and rise of The Revolutionary Middle Classes – the hapless vanguards and artisans of global capitalism.

More details about the project and a dedicated website will follow soon… In the meantime, look out for updates on twitter using the hashtag #skinnyvintage.
