Through ROOTS & ROUTES I was able to exhibit in several countries. This encouraged me, I have exhibited at TATE Britain since.
My introduction to ROOTS & ROUTES was through ABI Associates in London who I had approached to get support with setting up my own business in 2008. In 8 years, I have participated in many projects and met some amazing talents and made life long friends.
I participated as a media talent (photography) to start with and then went on to have team leader roles and UK co ordinator for national and international projects.
Through ROOTS & ROUTES I was able to exhibit in several countries in Europe including France, Italy and Holland. This encouraged me to exhibit more and I have curated and exhibited at TATE Britain in London since. My involvement with ROOTS & ROUTES introduced me to other disciplines as well as being able to showcase my own. This included the production element for shows and I have since gone on to work on production teams of major outdoor community art festivals as a direct result.
