beauty of nature
through highly
stylized, colorful
displays that stand in striking contrast with their
surroundings. Produced by Imagine Exhibitions, Nature
POP! blends art, science, and innovation in the display of
these sculptures. Known for his ability to make striking
works of art using simple LEGO toys, Kenney pushes
the boundaries of the medium in this new exhibition
through his use of vibrant colors and a bold, graphical
style. Inspired by the pop art movement, Kenney’s work
on Nature POP! plays on that movement’s principles
by blurring the boundaries between the austere and the
everyday and draws from a belief that everything is
interconnected.
Event dates are Jan. 8 to May 1, Tuesday to Sunday,
