Jenny Kendler: Bewilder, Be Wilder
The San Luis Obispo Museum of Art presents Bewilder | Be Wilder: the Art of Jenny Kendler, in the Gray Wing during April and May 2016.
Jenny Kendler鈥檚 work explores our complex relationships with the natural world. She presents her intimate sculptural works, drawings and public projects as a counterpoint to the view of nature as something to be possessed, suggesting instead, it is we who are possessed by nature.
Working at the intersection of art, activism, and the natural sciences, Jenny Kendler seeks to re-enchant human beings鈥� relationship with the natural world. She asks viewers to reexamine the idea of nature as something outside themselves, making space in their world view for the radical, transformative otherness on our bio-diverse Earth.
Bewilder | Be Wilder will incorporate an ongoing crowd sourced photography project, One Hour of Birds, in which photographers from across the country were asked to capture images of birds in flight over the course of one hour. Their photos were then combined by Ms. Kendler to create mesmerizing images celebrating nature.
