NATURE DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT US: Sculpture Milwaukee

June 21, 2022 - October 1, 2024

Nature Doesn't Know About Us, includes works by artists who combine skeptical clarity and at times humor-tinged desire to locate the intersection of spiritual and physical presence in daily life.

 

"There is a world alongside ours—boundless, unhurried, interconnected, resourceful, lavishly inventive, and we are only temporarily in it. Nature Doesn’t Know About Us celebrates the disparate elements of the Earth, while exploring the human connection to nature. The exhibition brings together the works of eighteen artists who combine skeptical clarity and at times humor-tinged desire to locate the intersection of spiritual and physical presence in our daily life. The natural world serves as a doorway into a highly rarefied metaphysical realm where the sea of consciousness surges against the tangible world. A world where all is in flux as distinctions between self and soul, body and spirit, past and present, mortification and bliss, confinement and escape all blur and waver."
