John Hyatt is a Professor of Contemporary Art at Liverpool John Moores University School of Art and Design. He has had a long journey with cancer. He lives in New Brighton. His second cancer was diagnosed at Wirral University Teaching Hospital in 2021 and he is currently receiving support from the Speech and Language Therapy team.
During his cancer diagnosis and treatment, John became better acquainted with his treating surgeon at WUTH, Professor Simon Rogers, Consultant Maxillofacial Surgeon with a special interest in oncology.
Simon was so deeply impressed by John’s art and positivity that he asked WUTH to support John in realising his wish for the art to be shared widely with the community to raise awareness of the symptoms of head and neck cancer.
Wirral University Teaching Hospital is delighted to be able to host this exhibition on behalf of John.
