Andrew was the young writer in residence at Cyprus Well from January until April 2017 supported by the Causley Trust and Falmouth-based Mentor, Mac Dunlop.
He is working on a project for publication to mark his time in Causley’s house and in response to the surrounding area. His poems and translations have appeared in magazines including Poetry Review, The Manchester Review and The Black Herald Project, a creative response to the work of Victor Pasmore, appeared as an installation at the Hatton Gallery (Newcastle upon Tyne) in 2015.
