The Unnatural Museum

Environmental Art @ LHQ Gallery, Cork County Council

This is an investigation of visual mutations. Environmental art presented in lit Cabinets of Curiosities or Wunderkammeras featuring curious combinations where mass-produced objects deviously mingle with Nature’s wonders. Found objects from different West Cork beaches in Ireland are juxtaposed with handmade ceramic and glass objects enhancing the narrative of present ecological obstruction.
