For the last eight weeks I have been in New Orleans. Mardi Gras marked the penultimate stage-post of the journey I undertook when I set out from London at the end of 2005.
Along with the experience of spending a couple of months in one of America's most unusual, cultural mixes came the opportunity to finish and broadcast a lot of previously incomplete artwork that I have had with me for the last year.
Images are above and accompanying texts are below. Please feel free to get in touch with good intentions.
