As we look forward to Christmas, Pangolin London asked some of our artists how they celebrate the festive period, their highlights from the year so far, and what they are looking forward to in the new year.
Underpinning Steven Gregory’s work is a wicked sense of humour, always looking at his potential subjects with a mischievous glint in his eye. After first working in stone during a break between his studies at St Martin's College of Art, Gregory progressed to much more macabre mediums, fashioning a series of works from bone in the 2000s. His work has been exhibited at the Peggy Gugenheim Museum, Venice (2002), the Cass Sculpture Foundation (2005-2006), and the Serpentine gallery (2007), where his work was included in an exhibition curated from the personal collection of artist Damien Hirst.
His exhibtion, The Laughing Series & The Killing Series, opens at Pangolin London today, Monday 6th December, showing until the end of the year.

How will you be celebrating Christmas this year?
What is your favourite Christmas food or beverage?
I'm teetotal so I won't be swilling alcohol. A tradition is making and serving Colonel Murphy's Chutney. Best after a couple of month's maturation, it is a rich mix of warm spices, and includes apples, figs, dates and raisins. Excellent with ham and cheeses.

What are you hoping for under the Christmas tree?
I could say yet more socks... but what I'd really like is a laser welder, please.
