Conor recently Applied for the ‘Creative Connections’ commissioned by The National Portrait Gallery in Collaboration with Museum Sheffield and Sheffield Park Academy.
He is excited to announce that he’s won the commission to work on this project. He will be working closely with the collections at the National Portrait Gallery and Museum Sheffield to create and exhibition of socially engaged portraiture in collaboration with my old school ‘Sheffield Park Academy’
“Its an honour to work with a school from an under-represented area of Sheffield but even more so because coincidentally it was a school a stones throw away from where I used to live on the Manor estate and one that has played a huge role in educating and supporting generations of my family and friends.”
‘Creative Connections is a national participation project which sees the National Portrait Gallery showcase highlights from its collection in partnership with galleries, artists and young people to explore ideas of place, community and the people who inspire us. ‘
Stay tuned for updates on the project.
