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.

[…] Created for The Morton Arboretum’s Human+Nature exhibition, UMI feels like a forest mother built from branches, roots, and ribs. The open body lets people step inside rather than only look up at it. The surrounding trees do a lot of the work. The venue now notes that Human+Nature has concluded; Visit Aurora says UMI has a permanent place at Hogan Park at Highlands Creek in The Aurora Highlands, Colorado.
