This is a video document of graffiti work completed within my second and third year at Goldsmiths. The video is a combination of several static photographs and videos with various post-production techniques applied. The music you hear while the video plays was created specifically for this project by Platitas. He composed the music after the video was complete, taking inspiration from the content of the video.
This site documents the work I completed during my second year at Goldsmiths. The site contains three projects.
The first project of the year was based on the theme ‘Community’. I used this opportunity to explore the creative nature of a group of my friends.

In their own words:
‘The Strident Camp and Summer Blockade aims to offer space for creative and open dialogue, enabling a united stand against what some commentators have called a nuclear renaissance. Bringing people together from across the political spectrum for open and honest debate about how to achieve a future free from the threat of nuclear annihilation, the week will be packed with speakers, discussion forums, training and workshops. We believe a mass movement from across society is needed to demonstrate that nuclear weapons are too dangerous for the power players of geo-politics. Though uncertain, the future is shaped by the present, and we must start moving now!’
Indeed a good cause to be supporting, I did the work for free.
This is a website I created for an all organic catering company.
It uses a simple HTML frame structure to display pages. This style is very outdated these days and is hardly ever used. Modern techniques tend to dynamically rebuild pages into one file, rather than keeping them all separate. I helped the company develop much of the content for the site as well as taking many of the photographs personally.
A complete portfolio documenting the projects that I completed in my first year at Goldsmiths (University of London). The work was completed between September 2005 – July 2006 and consists of 3 main projects tied together into one site.
I strongly recommend watching the animated introduction (music by Intrigue Junkie) before looking at the rest of the portfolio as it is well worth it. This animation incorporates many elements from all three projects, but in an abstract and non-direct way.
This website was made to promote the delicious homemade cupcakes created by Fairy Cups. Have a quick browse of the site and you’ll find yourself wanting one – they just look that good! Unfortunately the company, like so many other good companies before it – has closed.
If you managed to get one while they were still open congratulations, otherwise I think that a petition to get the company reinstated should begin right here, in the comments.
My first published illustrations are in a book designed in collaboration with my mother, Catherine Harte.
The book was written to help children with Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties understand their emotional state a little better and thus improve the quality of their lives. This is known as emotional literacy.
Using a series of cartoons, the book takes the reader through several scenarios that explain how emotions can affect behaviour. Once the child is able to understand and quantify their feelings they can take on an objective way of thinking more easily.
Having just finished an Art Foundation course at The London Metropolitan University in 2005, I had already created an A1 size portfolio of physical work completed during the course. However, I felt that this alone didn’t represent the full scope of what I was capable of.
With a degree course interview in mind I decided to create a digital compliment to the foundation work.
