A little more about me:
Guy is a co-founder and Director of spacetocreate.

As part of this work he has also taken a creative lead in designing and delivering more than ten large-scale community lantern processions.

Other projects include: The Wren’s Feast an experimental food and performance piece for The Centre for Performance Research in Aberystwyth; Mythical, Wild and Human for the Cultural Olympiad; Moving stories – a four year arts and digital media programme and The Big Picture Llanelly House – an 18 month project exploring identity and portraiture.

He studied English and Drama at the University of Hull, gaining a BA Joint Honours degree in 1982.
