Abstract

Deliberately referencing the practices of museology and natural science Buckmaster-Dove subverts these traditional frameworks to present a new reading of our country’s environmental beauty. Her paper sculptures appeal to our sense of gentle beauty and notions of wildlife neatly subdued. Through her delicate treatment of fragile forms Buckmaster-Dove sensitively and gently unravels our preconceptions of natural beauty and asks us to see with fresh eyes the unique and precious life found in the Australian landscape.
