Museum of Small Things

I'd heard of miniature art before and often see people using little figurines in their photography in 52Frames, so when I saw an ad for the Small is Beautiful exhibit, I knew I had to check it out. The creations may be small, but the creativity was off-the-charts massive!
The exhibit features 32 artists' miniature works. There were the creative pieces like the farmers painting toadstools or the sugary arctic wonderland and the unusual, magical creations and everything in between. I found myself really lingering at each display, taking the piece in from all sides so I didn't miss a microscopic detail!

Garden of Animals

In the shadow of St. John the Divine in Morningside Heights sits a lovely little pocket park called "The Garden of Animals." In the center of the park is a massive sculpture called the Peace Fountain - depicting the sun, moon, and a variety of animals. It's meant to represent the battle of good and evil -- fitting for it's location next to the church!
All around the Peace Fountain and nestled in the surrounding shrubbery are little animals made by school children. Each little statue was so beautifully made, so detailed, and uniquely added to the garden as a whole. 

It could have been to easy to walk by and just take in the larger Peace Fountain from the street, but I am so glad I went in and got the whole experience!
