“UMI” Sculpture by Daniel Popper in Lisle, Illinois
By Vidar
Installation artist Daniel Popper
By Daniel Popper at the outdoor tree museum The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois, USA.
Daniel Popper: “UMI” – Meaning Life in Swahili and Mother in Arabic. 1 of 5 new works from the Human+Nature exhibition opening today at the The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, Illinois. Surrounding the base of the Earth Mother we have planted Virginia Creepers. I am looking forward to watching them grow and the artwork evolve over time in this beautiful space. Made from steel & GFRC (Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete), 20ft tall. The pieces will on display for 1 year. May you all enjoy interacting with her as much as we enjoyed creating her.
