Andy Hutson completed an MFA at the Victorian College of the Arts in 2008.
His work has been exhibited across Australia, including in the exhibition Gorillas in Our Midst curated by Pip Mott at the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), in Hobart in 2019.
Hutson has been curated into Dark Mofo (Disquiet (Off You) curated by Stephanie Han, 2017) and two Mona Foma festivals (No Place Like Home curated by Emma Pike, 2021 and Dumb Function curated by Kim Jaeger, 2023).
Hutson has undertaken both local and international residencies, including Grizedale Arts (UK) and a recent studio residency at Contemporary Art Tasmania.
He has received numerous grants and prizes, and his work was shortlisted for the TIDAL20 art prize in Devonport in 2022.
Most recently Hutson was awarded the significant $100,000 VACS Major Commissioning Projects grant from the Australia Council for this project, Apologue Isle.
In addition to his sculpture practice, Hutson creates jewellery and functional objects which play with scale and complement his larger work.
