Haley Wood: Hawthorn: Solo Exhibition | Los Angeles

8 November - 20 December 2025
Overview

Abigail Ogilvy Gallery is pleased to present our first solo exhibition by fiber artist Haley Wood. Hawthorn is a twelve-part narrative series following a young brown bear who, desiring escapism, slips into the fairy realm. Led by the Guide, Bear encounters a variety of playful fairies. However, Bear is frequently reminded of the cause for its escapism. Soon, the fairies’ horseplay becomes overwhelming and Bear wishes to return to the natural world. A long awaited visit to the Doctor of Physick reveals that Bear has been in a deep trance, dreaming through the passing of a calendar year. In order to awaken from this trance, Bear must learn to find solace in the soft soil and sprouting of the spring crocuses.
