If you havenβt been to @trex.southeast now is the time!
Posted @withregram β’ @trex.southeast Weβre excited to share this short nβ sweet animation our talented volunteer Doug has made for us (and of us!)
Wanting to work within the style of collage, Doug captured initial images of TREX space and its staff. Then, using cutting and layering techniques in various editing software, manipulated individual parts of the images to create a stop-motion effect.
Rockets are key to the installation process. Remember to use both hands when handling art. π¨

all roses sleep (inviolate light) is playing NOW at the Esplanade.
π½οΈ all roses sleep (inviolate light) is an olfactory video by Alana Bartol and Bryce Krynski that blends how bees and humans experience and use the land around us. Shot using ultraviolet video, visitors are invited to see the prairie landscape from a beeβs point of view and follow along with a scratch and sniff card π that expands on the pleasant and pungent experience of pumpjacks, grazing cattle, prairie grasses, and wildflowers. As the solitary bee searches and dreams of a rose, the work is meant to conjure questions about our shared future.
This immersive art experience is available NOW in In Our Nature π Visit us Tuesday - Saturday, 12-5 PM.
π¦ Weβre just 2 weeks away from the return of A Night At The Museum!
Donβt miss out on all the fun! Grab tickets while you still can! #linkinbio
