Life and career
Ming was born in Gravesend, Kent, England. In 1979 he was one of the founder members of The Medway Poets group. He is an old associate of Billy Childish and collaborated with him on albums and films up until 2008 when Ming severed contact with Childish. Ming and Childish began recording again in 2011 and released a new collaborative release in 2012.
In 1999, Ming was one of the 13 original members of the Stuckists, a pro-figurative painting, anti-conceptual art, group, which was co-founded by fellow Medway Poets, Billy Childish and Charles Thomson. He exhibited in the group's shows, most notably being one of the "featured artists" in their first national museum exhibition, The Stuckists Punk Victorian, at the Walker Art Gallery during the 2004 Liverpool Biennial. He left the Stuckists in 2005 to pursue a solo career. He exhibits at the L-13 Gallery, London. In 2012, Ming contributed artwork to "The King of The Shale" single by Ex-Hefner guitarist Jack Hayter on Audio Antihero records.
