When the writer (or the artist in general) says he has worked without giving any thought to the rules of the process, he simply means he was working without realizing he knew the rules

An Umberto Eco quote typed in a font made from a drawing of his face.

In the tradition of the French literary avant-garde, I playfully explore mathematically creative methodologies by inventing then enacting constraints (a set of self-imposed mathematically inspired rules) that function as a structure to produce artwork. I am based in northern England but exhibit and work internationally (as a member of the Oupeinpo, the visual art iteration of the OuXpo groups who work in parallel to the Oulipo). I often have work in publications, national and international, including publications in the Tate collection and the Bibliotheque Nationale Paris.
