Mark has curated exhibitions and produced events featuring artists Olga Balema, Jeremy Deller, Vivienne Dick, Jaki Irvine, Sean Lynch, Dennis McNulty, Locky Morris, and Anne Tallentire. He co-curated Fly Floor in 2023 with Niamh O’Malley in partnership with the Ireland tour of Ireland at Venice at The Complex.
