An exhibition of works of art interpreting nature and created by Bay Area artists. Throughout history, artists have responded to the natural environment, whether in detailed studies of plants and animals or lush paintings of the land or sea. In recent years, as the lines between what is truly natural and what has been altered, genetically or otherwise, by mankind has become increasingly hard to distinguish, artists are responding to nature --or what passes for nature-- in entirely new ways. (un)Natural looks at this phenomenon through the work of a small group of Bay Area artists, including Jessica Cadkin, Ross Campbell, Misako Inaoka, Carrie Lederer, Kathryn Spence, Lucrecia Troncoso and Tara Tucker.
