Lonnie Hutchinson’s Fresh Cut comes from a much larger, potentially variable assemblage of thirty-one intricately cut paper pieces; here five elements have been enabled to interact with each other (and the works around them) in new ways. Predominantly made from patterned suburban wallpaper, Lonnie’s chosen materials speak of everyday connections and inspiration celebrating Pasifika heritage and cultural identity.
