An international artist, artistic programmer, multi-disciplinary arts festival director, and cultural leader with extensive experience of curating bold, cross disciplinary creative programs in public and non-traditional spaces across Europe and beyond.
Recognised for his generous, bold and accessible artistic vision he enjoys commissioning new work and working within collaborative networks with a particular focus on artistic development and mentoring.
Specialising in site-specific practices he has always had a deep interest in how the use of sound and music transforms public space and is increasingly used to influence atmosphere and mood.
Mikey often works with non-arts partners in academia, technologies, socially engaged practices and urban planning to support artists in creation of work.
“In an era where the majority of us traverse public spaces with our own individual soundtracks it feels increasingly interesting to work with composers, and multi-disciplinary artists to broaden the opportunity for a new kind of audio experience in public space.”
