Sea Jelly Soiree
This past Saturday evening we were so grateful to be able to attend Shedd Aquarium’s annual gala. This year, in honor of the new jelly fish exhibit, the event was titled the Sea Jelly Soiree. The entire night was nothing short of incredible and we couldn’t help but be overjoyed and enraptured by all of the beautiful decorations and design put into this event. The jellies exhibit alone was amazing- you must see it for yourself! The colors, shapes, and design of the space had us captivated the whole way through. Enough talk, take a look at the images and get a little taste of what we were so thankful to experience for ourselves.
The best part of beauty is that which no picture can express. -Francis Bacon
Shadow Type by Fred Eerdekens
About a week ago we attended the Next and Art Chicago shows at the Merchandise Mart in River North. This metal, shadow type by Fred Eerdekens definitely caught our eye and made us stop and really look at the way an object can cast a shadow that is both interesting and different from the object itself. We decided to take this away from the show and onto the streets of Chicago- studying the way a shadow changes as its object moves about and observing the shadows we pass on a daily basis.
The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery. – Francis Bacon
