IN CELEBRATION OF OCHI’S REPRESENTATION OF
AVERY WHELESS
WE ARE PLEASED TO FEATURE
BETWEEN US
A SELECTION OF ARTWORKS & OBJECTS CURATED BY THE ARTIST
FEBRUARY 4 - MARCH 30
OCHI is pleased to announce representation of Los Angeles-based interdisciplinary artist and painter Avery Wheless.
To celebrate this special occasion—and inspired by the female relationships depicted in her paintings—Wheless has curated a selection of artworks, objects, jewelry, and unique collectibles by women artists she admires, to be featured in OCHI’s online shop from February 4th through March 30th, 2025. “This exhibition aligns with my work and my deep love for building safe, supportive, and dynamic female communities,” Wheless shares. “There is a collective intimacy between each piece, as they all speak a shared language of form, feeling, and the complexities of being seen—expressing a duality of softness and strength.” The shop will showcase works by Seffa Klein, Jenny Hata Blumenfeld, Kari Fry (SUBSURFACE), Eva Porche (Evangeline Jewelry), Zarina Nares, Gabriela Forgo, Stacey Nishimoto, and Sarah Plummer, presented alongside new works on paper by Wheless.

OCHI is a contemporary art gallery with locations in Sun Valley, Idaho and Los Angeles, California. Nurturing and contextualizing a diverse roster of interdisciplinary artists, OCHI highlights a mix of traditional and experimental practices that investigate the conceptual and material boundaries of art. OCHI’s program focuses on emerging and mid-career artists, collaborating with each artist to build momentum and visibility through robust activities such as institutional exhibitions, gallery partnerships, artist-initiated opportunities, educational and curatorial platforms, art fairs, and a range of press and publications.
Founded in 2015 as an experimental space in which the artists were “handed keys and encouraged to dream big,” OCHI’s Shop features experimental artworks and handmade objects that may step outside of an artist’s recognized studio practice, keeping in line with OCHI’s multi-generational belief that art has the power to build community, to evoke joy, expand horizons, to define culture, and to create a future that has not yet been imagined.
