Into the Hedge


It's not every day you get to jump, crawl, walk, and play on a giant hammock slash trampoline-like installation. But kids (and adults) who visit Exhibit Columbus have a chance to do just that. Titled Into the Hedge, the massive piece features 130 trees covered in pink, yellow and blue nylon webbing.

After the exhibition is over, the trees will be planted in a garden and the woven material will be used to make bags. The gabions, mulch, limestone and other parts that comprise the piece will all be recycled into local infrastructure projects.
Exhibit Columbus features 18 site-specific installations by designers, architects, artists, and academics from across the United States and Mexico. The event runs until December 1, 2019.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Bats, Cats, and Dancing Skeletons

It’s now been fifty-eight years since Walt Disney died of lung cancer, and as a great way to remember his legacy is watch this short film he did in 1929. It’s truly impressive, and you can still see the impact he made on animation today.
