Biophilia: Nature Reimagined at Denver Art Museum

Denver friends...

If you're a lover of art and nature stop everything you're doing now and rush to Denver Art Museum!

Or, maybe read this post first so you know why!

Yesterday we visited Denver Art Museum to check out the exhibition Biophilia: Nature Reimagined. I'd been seeing it pop up on Instagram for a few months now and kept planning to go see it over Summer Break with the kids. Well, here we are, just one week out from school starting and we finally made it. 

More importantly though, there are only a few more days left to see this stunning exhibition before it closes for good. If, like me, you've been procrastinating about visiting, you're running out of time.

Wondering what Biophilia is all about? Read on for more...

Biophilia: Nature Reimagined is a collection of over eighty works of art that represent the transformative power of nature and how we interact with it. Being in touch with nature brings many emotions. It can make us feel calm and connected with the world around us, but it can also feel chaotic and dangerous. Most pieces in this exhibition imbue a sense of calm and wonder, but there are a few that, to me, feel a little explosive. A little out of our control - just like nature is.

The exhibition consists of artworks from various fields including photography, furniture design, ceramics, sculpture, fashion, architecture, digital art, interactive art, and more. 

I've sorted the photos below into rough categories of art fields, but as you'll see, so many of the pieces are multi disciplinary. Where is the line between a piece of furniture or a light installation and sculpture? Where does kinetc art end and
