He has an ongoing personal and professional interest in disability representation, particularly with regard to mental health issues. As an Upstream commission produced by Dada-South as part of Accentuate, Hambrook produced an illustrated poetry collection / exhibition titled ‘100 Houses' in May 2010 for the Brighton Festival.
