Little Orange Studio returned to Campbelltown Arts Centre in November 2021 after several months of working in isolation and connecting through online workshops. The artists celebrated their long-awaited return to the studio with a group exhibition.   

Little Orange: The tingly feeling of uncertainty is the second group exhibition staged at Campbelltown Arts Centre by the studio artists after a significant period of isolation. This exhibition presents a suite of new works by the Little Orange artists that were made during the recent NSW lockdown. During this time, the group met regularly on Zoom to discuss their at-home practice and creative developments along the way.  

The title of the exhibition references a line within a collaborative poem led by Little Orange artist, Richard Bell. The poem was shared with the Little Orange artists, in which each artist contributed their own lines.
