They have been involved in exhibitions in galleries and project spaces in the UK, Ireland, Holland, Italy, Germany and Japan and have participated in residencies including the British School at Rome and the European Ceramic Work Centre s’Hertogenbosch, Holland.

Dunhill and O’Brien also edit and direct the research portal: Collaborative Arts (www.collabarts.org) that investigates the nature of, and issues related to, collaborative art practice through essays, links, interviews and a timeline.
