Calling museum geeks. We've googled, telephoned, checked archives, newspaper reports, and spoken to specialists, but after a year of collecting data on closed museums in the UK we're officially stuck on some venues. Can you help? Have a look at our list: bit.ly/40rmJuV

Rosa Zharkikh was a factory worker who started to receive visions after a near-death experience. She embroidered her visions and used a hieroglyphic code she refused to translate. These are from Galerie St. Etienne, Museum of Outsider Art Montenegro, and Collection de l’Art Brut
