An ex Portobello resident, Michael lived in the area for over 10 years. As the time passed his initial wow response to the prom gave way to a more mature interest in the personal, idiosyncratic and unseen aspects of Portobello. For the project Michael is interested in creating a collaborative film work that would reflect this unseen Portobello.
Now teaching at Edinburgh College of Art his studio practice straddles an area between painting and the digital. In his own words: "Computers offer possibilities to augment painting, produce interactive media, and the creation of random paths and outcomes".
Commissioned in 2006 to create a video work entitled Portobello Rising, Michael has also recently exhibited with the Dunbar based curators Polarcap.

Big Things on the Beach is a public art trust in Portobello, a seaside suburb close to the city centre of Edinburgh, Scotland. It was formed by a group of residents in 2003 to explore the potential of the seafront as a site for engagement with public artworks by both emerging and established artists.
