Recently we went with a friend of Allysen’s to see this remarkable installation of art at Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. It was spectacular, an hour-long walk through the grounds of the zoo, winding past a continuing display of gorgeously lit fabric-covered, wire-frame sculptures, many of them animated. It was mesmerizing, and a remarkable achievement by the artists who created it. Here are a few of the highlights:
We didn’t see any orgs, that is, living zoo animals. I asked about it as we were leaving, because I thought maybe they had all been moved to another facility for the time being. But no, I was told, they were all just asleep in their enclosures—apparently uninterested in the fairyland just outside their doors!
