Gary O'Connor

O'Connor's culturally significant work involves writing, sound and objects in a combination of fact and fiction. For O Dreamland he is producing Radio Sunshine: from the crumbling remains of British seaside culture, rises a truly magnificent candy floss on a big stick. With music performed by Peter Hollingsworth of the Princelings, poetry from Martin Figura and Helen Ivory, and live reports from coastal flâneur, Rag Rowlinson.

Gary O'Connor studied at Norwich School of Art and Design, Guildhall University and Cambridge Regional College. Recent exhibitions include 'E8: The Heart of Hackney', Transition Gallery, London and 'Q', Curator Space, London. In 2005 he had a solo show, 'Above and Below' at Norwich Cathedral. O'Connor won the 2006-7 Escalator literature program award.
