He is known for making numerous projects in public spaces. His Previous work green river was carried out in Various cities between. 1998 to 2001. Which the Brighton festival presenting his work THE FORKED FOREST PATH. with the festivals theme this year care.

The Echibition, ;THE Forked Forest Path;
The display is being shown through you walking into a path of broken branches and trees to create a claustrophobic environment that feels beautiful to be in as the light reflects through the maze of broken wood. With my idea being a graffiti, street art exhibition. I was eager to see how using an environment to your own advantage can create new ideas for the me the learn and the audience to experience.
After walking through the exhibit I noticed that the interaction part of it was very prominent in his messaging. He wanted you to experience the feeling of uneasiness and broken but also a beauty through its nature with global warming and the way we protect trees these days being much more convoluted and difficult having the experience of walking through something that’s beautiful but broken was touching. https://www.fabrica.org.uk/the-forked-forest-path
