Jay Hutchinson
Hutchinson’s latest work follows on from his exhibition ‘On the way to work’ which showed at Olga in 2019. The previous exhibition consisted of 20 small hand embroidered works based on the trash Hutchinson found during his journeys to work. This work however is a singular piece that echoes Hutchinson’s fascination with psychogeography, the forgotten and discarded. Hutchinson conceived this work to follow the current show at OLGA ‘The Yallop and Smith Memorial Exhibition’ by utilising the damaged walls from the installation of over 100 works.

Exquisite Corpse
We've been playing Exquisite Corpse, the chance-based, surrealist game where participants contribute to a collective drawing without the knowledge of others' additions, resulting in wondrous composite figures. A revelatory exhibition, the moment of truth comes when the previously secret compositions are unveiled.
Participating artists include: Aroha Novak, Kirsten Ferguson, John Z Robinson, Sharon Singer, Emma Chalmers, Peter Cleverley, Anna Perry, Guy Howard-Smith, Michael Greaves, Rosa Cameron, Felix Harris, Lynley Workman, Grant Ramsay, and Nicola Hansby.
