Telling Stories #2 runs from 4 April – 31 May at Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope Gallery. I’ve collaborated with artist and performer Clare Whistler to create a piece inspired by Andrew Carnegie’s philanthropic support of more than 2,500 libraries in the late 19th and early 20th century, including one at Sevenoaks. Private view, 4 April, 6-8pm.
