Since 1990 he has exhibited work in Amsterdam, Glasgow, Cologne, and London but predominantly in central and northern Italy.
His work was described in the Independent as:
- Stuffed, late-Victorian style, with symbolic properties: images of fading youth, broken glass, spent matches, images of absence and restlessness, patterns in the dust where there was once a picture or a key, abandoned fruit, images of weather and forest and sea creeping into the brittle urban lives of his traumatised dames.[1]
He was the third husband of author, Lisa St Aubin de Teran. He lives and works in Umbria, Italy.
