National Treasure. Exhibited in: Cause and Effect, The National Centre for Craft & Design, Sleaford, Lincolnshire 2016

Dissemination context: National Treasure’s film (2014) was curated by Bryony Windsor for the exhibition Cause and Effect which explores artists' responses to adversity. This was shown alongside earlier object based works Relic (2011), Remnant (2011), Waster (2011), Trinket (2011). ‘Craft has been used throughout history to give people a voice, offer a creative output in challenging times and rebuild communities, families and lives following a disaster. The contemporary artists selected to exhibit in Cause and Effect take inspiration from personal tragedies, international disasters and unfortunate events, creating thought-provoking contemporary art in response. I feel that your work, responding to the demise of the Stoke potteries, would bring another element to the exhibition’. (Windsor email) Other featured artists in Cause & Effect included works by Julian Stair, Anna Barlow, Annie Cattrell, James Maskrey, Paul Scott, Emma Woffenden and Luke Jerram
