I'm thrilled to announce my shortlisting for the 2025 North East Emerging Artist Award! This opportunity allows me to explore the stunning architecture of Seaton Delaval Hall and its rich history. I'm eager to share my journey and proposals as I dive into this exciting creative process. Stay tuned for updates!

I’ve quit Instagram a few times; generally, because I just hate it. But then I go back. This time with the (valid) excuse of trying to build a following for my Art. But again, I found myself completely disillusioned with the Hellmouth that Meta have created.

In the spirit of blowing one’s own trumpet, living in the capitalist death cult in the age of peak self-promo, I’m publishing a list here of 2024 highlights for future David Kenney scholars to pore over. This list is chronological, rather than being a ‘top-ten’ or similar grid-friendly numbers.

I’m delighted to be featured in 87 Gallery's 'Times' publication, edition 'Shelter' guest edited by Jessica El Mal. This edition explores themes of shelter and includes numerous talented artists. I appreciate the opportunity and extend my gratitude to Matt Fratson, 87 Gallery, and Artlink Hull.

This weekend, I will exhibit at Stockton's inaugural art fair at @arc_stockton, part of @bigartfeststockton. I'll showcase new paintings, sculptures, and drawings. The event features around 20 local artists, activities, workshops, and a mural trail. Visit booth 15 on the first floor, open from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, July 6-7.
