Chris Allen has recently graduated from De Montfort University with a second class honours degree in Fine Art, where he also won the Kenneth Baker travel award.

Currently he is preparing to take part in 'THIS WAY UP' a group exhibition taking place in Leicester. He is also preparing for his first solo exhibition which will take place later this year.

In September he will be undertaking a postgraduate MA course at De Montfort University Leicester, where he intends to continue to develop his work around similar themes to those he has previously researched in his short time as an artist.
