I am currently one of twenty UAE-based artists chosen to represent Etihad Airlines in their 20th Anniversary Exhibition, United in Time. They selected my ink brush and linocut piece, Wave, which will be digitally displayed in the Abu Dhabi airport and will be physically exhibited at the Kempinski Hotel in the Mall of the Emirates. My work and process is also featured in the Etihad announcement video.
On Sunday, February 18, at 3pm, I’ll be having a conversation about the end of the world at Zerzura Books in Alserkal Avenue. I’ll start by speaking about topics from my book The End is at Hand with shop owner Alex Warren, then we’ll open up the discussion to attendees about their thoughts and curiosities. It’s meant to be fun, open, and thought-provoking.

I recently had a fun and wide-ranging conversation with Daniel Glenn from Fascinating Nouns about the end of the world. We talk about doomsday cults, Mouse Utopia, Chicken Little, and how we are just nine missed meals from total anarchy.
On April 5th, I’ll be hosting a panel discussion for the SGC International printmaking conference in Providence, RI, USA. You can register here, with more information below:
Join the roundtable discussion "Printmaking in the Community." It shares interviews from printmakers from around the world, including those in attendance, about how printmaking is a particularly communal process. Beginning with the history of printmaking, each new process became a tool for advancing the sharing of information in communities. This includes the impact of the Gutenberg Press for books and screen printing for posters. We'll talk about how printmakers contribute to their community today through illustration, bookmaking, posters, art markets, workshops, print exchanges, sharing tips on the internet, their importance in the classroom and in art therapy, and bringing people together at conferences such as in Providence.
I recently finished printing a small edition of my largest linocut to date. It’s a triptych scene of life in a bottle.
