Come and explore our mobile ArtCart with interactive art activities for kids and families in Matt Hoyt: Recent Past, 2010–2016.

Hoyt's sculptures often evoke improbable growths from the natural world: unknown seashells or bone fragments, barnacle accretions or twigs, stones, pits, fungi, rinds, and husks. For his exhibition in the Gallery for Small Sculpture, Hoyt has designed an installation of mainly new work that has been in development for the past six years. More than 100 individual objects and discrete sculptural groups will be installed within the exhibition’s vitrines.
