AFRIKA – The Wild by Ken and Michelle Dyball

The work for this exhibition come from the vast archive of Ken and Michelle Dyball shot over a 10-year period while the couple lived in Africa. Their knowledge and connection to the land is apparent through their unique and unrepeatable images.

The Dyball’s work has been recognised internationally, winning multiple awards, including Nature’s Best African Photography Awards and BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year. The couple will also be the subject of a future publication by the prestigious Natural History Museum in London, which not only acknowledges the beauty of their work, but also its ethological importance.

Black Eye Gallery director Tom Evangelids said, “This is a truly unique representation of Africa by two of Australia’s foremost international nature photographers. The work is grand, intimate and most of all emotional – it’s compelling to see native animals in their natural habitats. Having Nick Brandt’s work in the gallery last year, we are honoured to have another fine body of images from this amazing continent, and we are thrilled they are Australian!”
