Featurette: LYNNE ROBERTS-GOODWIN

Mrs. Deane posted on Lynne Roberts-Goodwin's work on the Landings series of "Bad Birds". Here is an excerpt from Lynne's profile; the full verion is HERE.

LYNNE ROBERTS GOODWIN - Born Sydney, Australia
Lynne Roberts-Goodwin’s work is grounded in a deep concern for nature and humanity. Her strategic partnerships with industrial and scientific communities underpin photographic artworks relating to endangered species and their environments that transcend geographical representation, creating ‘a characteristic push–pull … between the aims of truth on the one hand and those of rhetoric and desire on the other ... Roberts-Goodwin is constantly investigating the possibilities whereby images, even for an instant, can cross the borders of language.’ (Adam Geczy).



As a sidenote, it also seems that this series is tangled in a minor controversy.
