He has also studied at the Faculty of Education, and is currently reading for a Masters in Fine Arts by Research at the University of Malta. He was also nominated for the ‘Young Artist of the Year’ award by the Arts Council in Malta and throughout the years has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in countries such as Italy, Poland and The Netherlands.
