Nurture Nature presents a deeply personal exploration of family, identity, and belonging through the lens of a blended Korean-Australian family. The exhibition delves into themes of adoption, loss, care, cultural identity, and lived experience, offering insight into the complexities of family life within a multicultural society.

Over fifty works are featured, including childhood drawings and paintings by the daughter, sculptures by the father crafted from Sydney sandstone and native flora, and paper pulp sculptures by the mother created using recycled materials. Inspired by their 37 years of life together in the Blue Mountains, each artwork is imbued with personal and familial narratives shaped by their natural and cultural environment.

At the heart of the exhibition lies a quiet inquiry: in the context of cross-cultural adoption, how do the forces of nature and nurture unfold within one family's story? What do we mean by 'nature', and how is nurturing expressed across generations and cultural boundaries? Nurture Nature invites audiences to consider these questions through the creative expressions of Jane and Tony, and the formative artworks of their daughter, Seon Ae. Together, their works speak to the enduring influence of environment, memory, and care in shaping identity and connection.

Artist: Jane Lennon, Tony Lennon, Seon Ae Lee
