The concept of the Wunderkammer, aka The Cabinet Of Curiosities, has been an artistic inspiration for some time, however, the new works by Ryan Matthew Cohn take it up a notch with an exceptional exhibition of sculptures based thematically on the subject. Wunderkammers arose originally in the 16th century amongst the intellectually curious elite, who built rooms devoted to collections of objects gleaned from other cultures and the ethnobotanical wondrous.
These collections served as the precursor to the concept of the Natural History Museum… treasure troves meant to install creative wonder as well as scientific learning and examination. Contemporary wunderkammers often include historical oddities and can lean towards the macabre with collections of bones, taxidermy, and religious artifacts.
