Diseño de plantación del Jardín Sensorial

El Jardín Sensorial del Denver Art Museum, compuesto de tres ejes separados (AGUA, MADERA y CIELO), te puede transportar hasta un arrecife botánico, atraerte hacia un diáfano bosquecillo o elevarte por la atmósfera. Solo con moverse unos cuantos pies, o cambiar sencillamente de campo visual, los visitantes pueden simultáneamente anclarse a momentos y vivencias íntimas con la vegetación y acceder a la extensión ilimitada que rodea la terraza.

Dondolo, the Witch Doctor's Assistant

by Simphiwe Ndzube
Dondolo represents a mine laborer as he carries a blue precious stone in a wheelbarrow, a reference to diamond mining and land exploitation in South Africa.
