With an omnivorous eye for cultural detail he sampled and re-applied the imagery of contemporary media consumption across sculpture, drawing, printmaking, textile design and film. Restlessly interested in the challenges presented by different spaces of production, in the latter part of his life he worked on a significant number of public commissioned works, including the mosaics for the Tottenham Court Road London Underground station and an architecturally scaled sculptural installation at the Rhinegarten, Cologne. Selected exhibitions and projects include; Parallel of Life and Art, ICA, London, 1953. This is Tomorrow, Whitechapel Gallery, London, 1956. British Pavilion, Venice Bienale, 1960 &amp; 1968.
