Do you remember what it was like to play hide-and-go-seek? The thrill of knowing the good spots to hide or the exhilaration of finding someone after some earnest searching?
South Coast Botanic Garden attempts to embody that same feeling on its vast 87 acres by inviting you to enjoy its newest exhibit: Hide and Seek: Art Meets Nature. This exhibition features eight works, including two contemporary pieces owned by South Coast Botanic Garden, and six modern works from the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
The sculptures have been carefully placed throughout the Garden as a way to encourage nature exploration with an artful game of hide and seek. The Garden’s vast nature space provides an exquisite opportunity for each sculpture to express its own artistic character. The interplay of nature and art will add a whole new level of appreciation for the Garden’s botanical collections.
