About
matter! is a contemporary fine art gallery featuring over 100 artists using recycled and reclaimed materials. We opened September, 2009 in Olympia, Washington. We sell artworks in our gallery on 5th Avenue and online.

Owner, Curator, & General Manager: Jo Gallaugher

Jo has 20 years business experience
and a long-standing love for artworks incorporating reclaimed materials. She holds an MBA from University of California Irvine, and a BA in Political Science from University of Washington. Jo has primarily concentrated on west coast artists while gathering works for matter!, but has begun to expand geographically. She is continually on the lookout for artists creating beautiful artworks with repurposed materials.


Photographer & Art Accomplice: Bob Snell

Trained as a commercial photographer, Bob quickly decided mainstream commercial photography wasn't for him. In addition to being the art photographer for matter!, he has done several photography shows featuring his original works... choosing everything from stripper shoes to metropolitan skylines as subject matter. His goal is to honestly capture the crazy inventiveness inherent in all that is human.
