Last Friday I did a comprehensive interview with Rod McLoughlin, Jersey finest journalist on arts and culture about my new film, The Seaflower Venture, currently on show at The Channel Islands Contemporary Art Show at Capital House in St Helier, curated and produced by ArtHouse Jersey and Art for Guernsey in association with Les Champs Libres. It's published today in the Jersey Evening Post and you can read it online here too.
