Hard Fast Love – Gail Olding

Hard Fast Love is the latest exhibition from Gail Olding and features we latest series of sculpture works that move from assemblages that many will be familiar with, to abstract work that form the latest stages of her exploration into the symbolic natures of the circle, cycles, circularity, position and intersection.

Trebuchet readers will be familiar with her work through our limited edition print series, which featured one of the earlier examples of Olding’s circular wall sculptures. Further information can be found here

She is currently a guest student at The Kunst  Academy Dusseldorf studying with Georg Herold, she also works as a lecturer and lives and works in London.

Her work often disrupts and disquietens in an attempt to question systems of communication.
