Selected editorial:

"By Natasha Soobramanien.

...Ivan Morison’s work documents his progress as a gardener. In the opening week of the show he sold locally grown vegetables from his barrow in the city centre. Within the gallery, a series of pencil drawings chart the growth of his 2001 crop of Red Flare cabbages. Here, Morison tries to impose emotional distance between himself and his subject ­ drawing on graph paper, numbering each image ­ but these only serve to point up the soft, smudgy lines of the drawings, which were clearly made with love."
