Work

Osborn is known for his installations[12] [13] that integrate sculpture and sound.[14] [15] [16] Osborn has also worked with video as an art form,[17] [18] and done sound performances.[19] [20] His installation works use objects as diverse as train sets,[21] rubber tubing,[22] wind-up music boxes[23] and fans to create a visual and sound environment.[24] His works for the gallery often have a strong conceptual aspect; in Audio Recordings of Great Works of Art Osborn made recordings of the space surrounding famous works of art, then played back only these sounds in an exhibition.[2] [25] [26] Osborn was a 2000 Artist-in-Residence at the McColl Center for Art + Innovation.[27]
