Finalist in the Visual Art Open 2026 – ‘Birthday Boy’

I am absolutely delighted to share some wonderful news: my sculpture ‘Birthday Boy’ has been selected as a Finalist in the Visual Art Open 2026! 🎉

This is a very special moment for me and my artistic practice. Earlier this year, Birthday Boy progressed to the longlist, then to the shortlist, and has now reached the Finalist stage of the competition.

It is a great honour to see my sculpture recognised among the selected finalists, following an exceptionally strong and diverse group of entries.

As a finalist, I am delighted to have the opportunity to exhibit Birthday Boy at the Visual Art Open 2026 Finalist Exhibition in London, at The Minster Building, 21 Mincing Lane, London EC3R 7AG, 8–11 October 2026

Being selected as a finalist is another important milestone in my artistic journey, and I am incredibly grateful to the Visual Art Open and the Visual Artists Association for this opportunity.

I am looking forward to seeing Birthday Boy exhibited alongside the work of the other finalists and to meeting fellow artists and visitors at the exhibition.

Thank you to everyone who continues to follow, support and encourage my work. Every exhibition, award and recognition is part of an ongoing journey of creating, learning and sharing stories through sculpture.

I look forward to sharing more news from the Visual Art Open 2026 soon.
