COI declaration

I created this article. Just for transparency I should mention the gallery once featured a group exhibition where I was one of five artists featuring works (See here: [4]). For three years I have also put a single piece in their annual 'Collect' fundraiser, alongside over 100 other artists. The gallery has never paid me to display my works, I have no works currently available for sale through the gallery, and I have no ongoing financial ties to the gallery. I will possibly put in an application to submit a piece for future annual 'Collect' fundraisers, if they hold them again, but I have no immediate plans to submit my work to the gallery again in the future. The gallery did not ask me to create this article. Damien Linnane (talk) 02:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
