Artist Talk: In Conversation with Lesley Duxbury
Saturday 1 March, 1pm - 2pm
Free | Refreshments provided
B–CSC Gallery, Main Street, Bogong Village

Join artist Lesley Duxbury and B–CSC curator Madelynne Cornish for an engaging conversation about Duxbury’s works in the Look Both Ways exhibition, as they explore the intricate connections between art, perception, and nature.

Discover Duxbury’s distinctive creative methods, from immersive journeys through remote landscapes to experiments with iconic optical devices like the Black Mirror. Learn how she reimagines natural environments through photography, printmaking, and text.

This is more than just a talk—it’s an opportunity to reflect, connect, and deepen your understanding of how art transforms our relationship with place and the environment.

Lesley Duxbury is a Gippsland-based artist whose work includes photography and printmaking. Her interests are in the atmospherics of landscapes and perceptions of place. She has undertaken extended walks in some of the most remote places on earth, such as Arctic Baffin Island and the Isla Navarino, the furthest south in Tierra del Fuego. Walking is an essential part of information gathering for her research, as is basic photography – a simple camera and iPhone – with which she documents the landscape and its atmosphere.
