Fun for Friday: Meow Wolf Photos from Eemia
On our recent roadtrip, we ended in Denver, where my youngest sister really wanted us all to go see Meow Wolf. She had previously been to the one in Santa Fe and enjoyed it, and I’d heard great things about it from my friends. So we went!
If you’re not familiar with Meow Wolf, it’s primarily a multi-artist art installation, but there’s a story in the art and the layout. The Denver Meow Wolf is also called Convergence Station, and it involves four alien words having collided with one another.
This week’s selection of pictures are from the Numina section. I’ll provide more details below!
The first image is of a statue within the Kaleidogothic Cathedral. The statue is gold or copper colored (tinted pink by the surrounding light), has the head of a bull, tentacles in place of arms, and wears a dark colored robe. It sits atop a plain pedestal and is surrounded by vertical lines and a wrought iron gate to one side. The overall colors are pinks and purples.
The second image is part of the facade of the Kaleidogothic Cathedral. The facade is pale yellow, with intricate and delicate work at the top and a circle with thin rays and a series of rounded bumps surrounding it. Inside the circle is stained glass, and more stained glass is visible beyond the facade. The sky above the cathedral is a mix of dark blues and light greens, meant to simulate an outdoor night sky. Visible only as a dark shadow against the sky (and difficult to see in this image) is one of the “gargoyles” atop the cathedral, this one in the shape of a praying mantis.
The third image is a throne atop a flight of concrete steps, surrounded by blue and red lights, sometimes combining into a deep purple. The seat of the throne is wide, and it is topped with more lights and some reflective surfaces reminiscent of disco balls. At the very top of the throne is what appears to be a robot’s head, with something that looks like a blaster weapon on the left-hand side. The backdrop of the throne appears to be rough-hewn rock.
