In 2020, he collaborated with designer Paul Smith on a series of limited edition prints. Next year, Hammick will travel to the United States as the recipient of the prestigious Josef & Anni Albers Foundation Residency.

Hammick is a painter and a printmaker. His works are informed by a passion for poetry, opera, film, wonderment for the environment and deepest concerns around climate catastrophe.
