The publication How To Play With MK (2020), jointly written by the whole family, presents their two-year residency with MK Gallery as a series of fictional encounters with a city which is by turns magical, mundane and threatening.

The trail, commissioned by Metal (Southend), is called Sound Mirrors and forms part of the England’s Creative Coast project. Since October 2020 he and his family have lived in rural Portugal.
