The past has led me from the Streets of East London And its Institutions - To the Heights of Peru, Beaches of Barcelona, Expanses of Africa And Walls of Berlin - With Dreams (If I may dare to say) Too big for one alone - Friendships made From distant lands, The 'Rich' and 'Poor' To Irreligious beyond Belief, Whites and Blacks To so many more - In between - All Colours Imagin/able
Middlesex University
(Visual Communication Design)
I continued working
In 'Retail Operations' post-university
(As I had done during my studies)
Before deciding to travel again
After being 'let go' from
My employer at the time
I started selling small
Postcard size prints
On the Streets of London
Brick Lane
Not realising
That you couldn’t sell
On the streets
Without a license
I decided to set up a stall
At the Backyard Market
Berlin
Word of mouth would have it
That Berlin was 'the place to be'
If you were a creative -
In need of inspiration
I went to find out...
Camden
To Open a Space
In the Heart of London
Where I could
Create, exhibit and sell
Directly to the public
Was a dream come true
