Summary[ un ] natural histories is a provocative pairing, a complex dialogue between the practices of Lyndal Osborne and Gwen Curry. Each artist’s practice is poised on the nature-culture cusp and both employ strategies of repetition. However, while one artist expresses a joyful affirmation of life into which is folded a sombre recognition of death, the other strikes a funeral chord of environmental warning into which are woven notes of pure delight in the close observation of the natural world.
