Description
Fragile Nature brings together the work of Brent Bukowski and Kathryn Ward set up in such a way as to encourage discourse on the ideas and questions about landscape, nature and culture. Their complementary but divergent approach to these topics, and the contrast in how they incorporate glass, nature and industrial materials creates a dynamic exhibition. Each artist looks at his intersection of mankind and the ecological world and creates work that contains a cautionary note.
