Synopsis
Throughout this decade I was responsible for running an art school, first in Wolverhampton and later in Kent so I had less time in my studio. However those jobs took me to parts of the world I would not otherwise have visited - especially East Asia. Many of my works are about these places e.g. Tales from the South China Sea (1992) and The Japan Triptych (1994). There are other works from the 1990s I have 'worked out' but not constructed as I did not have the time e.g. TV Korea. Likewise there are works I have never shown as I did not have the time to show them to galleries.
