Packaging and merchandise clients include work for artists such as Noah and the Whale, Micachu & the Shapes, Marina and the Diamonds, Graham Coxon, Patrick Wolf, The Joy Formidable, Fanfarlo, and Emmy the Great.

Recognition from the screenprinting community has led to invitation to exhibit in a number of the UK’s most highly regarded exhibitions such as 2008’s Mutate Britain alongside such prolific artist as Shepard Fairey, Airside and Insa, as well as more recently, Eine , Pure Evil and Clifford Richards at Print Club London’s Blisters Blackout show in 2010.

2010 has also seen Flyingmachines invited to be represented by prestigious London Gallery, Jealous in Crouch End, amongst inspirations such as Andy Warhol and Banksy. As an artist, designer, printmaker and art director Flyingmachines has also had the pleasure of being recognised by leading design
publication Creative Review and Elle Décor, as well as being published by London Design studio’s Nobrow Press in summer 2009 issue ‘gods & monsters’, for which Williamson received a D&AD awards listing for 2010.

2011 saw Flyingmachines partake in Pick Me Up, the UK’s first contemporary graphic art fair, held at Somerset House, 17th-27th March. Williamson has also recently finished his first book as an author, entitled Reinventing Screenprinting. It was published by A & C Black Publishers and released worldwide in November 2011.

In 2012, Flyingmachines will continue to work with old and new friends, including Laurence King Publishing, with whom Williamson is currently writing his second book, based on the relationship between design and printmaking.
