Does the It stick 

Joanna Tatham and Tom O'Sullivan have been working collaboratively for nearly 20 years, with this exhibition moving their work into questioning how art can be present in commercial spaces. The viewer moves through the work- almost as an installation, but sees the work firstly as a sections of a larger room, as rainbow walls are built and plastic curves to lead on to a different path.
