Emerge from your iso chrysalides, anti-social butterflies

A Together In Art Pocket Exhibition curated by Claire Eggleston

As restrictions on being in the presence of another human being are tentatively relaxed, the prospect of venturing past the front door for more than a brisk walk or dash for toilet paper may have us hiding under the doona, loudly singing 'The rainbow connection' (Willie Nelson version, thanks).

Feeling like a startled hermit crab reluctant to emerge from your shell? We’ve got you covered.

Claire Eggleston is senior librarian at the Art Gallery of New South Wales
