Roq La Rue exhibiting artist Jed Dunkerley is holding a massive studio sale in order to drive donations to Creatura Wildlife Projects and thier efforts to support the Elephant Protection Trust in Kenya. Creatura has supported EPT and most specifically their gyrocopter monitoring program. You can read more about that here.
Known for his work that blends environmental inspiration with a humorous graphic sensibility, Dunkerley’s work uses humor and scientific messaging to discuss environmental issues. During Covid, he started talking long neighborhood walks and created his monster house series, a warm look at neighborhoods even as it references we see “the other” in times of crisis.
Growing up as a child he went on adventure wilderness camping trips, falling in love with the spectacular beauty of nature, only to be suddenly disquieted by rampant destruction of said beauty seeming around every corner of a protected paradise. His work seeks to reconcile his desire to express the majestic grandeur of the wild while also finding a way to talk about unsettling realities and the changing nature of the world in the Anthropocene.
