Mike Finlay

I’m a contemporary artist based in Northumberland.  I completed a BA in Fine Art at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 2005 and am close to completing an MA in Fine Art at Northumbria University. I am also carrying out research into the development of opportunities within the visual arts for young people with learning difficulties.

My artwork focuses on the impact of trauma and the media on memory and our sense of place. I work with photography and acrylic on canvas with spaces in which my own memory has been altered by external influences.
