In Search of the Beauty of Nature by Tianming Zhao is an exhibit featuring watercolor paintings and leaf prints inspired by natural beauty. The appreciation of nature is always a guideline for organic architecture. Each leaf, twig and stone have stories to tell, and when combined, they compose a sonata of art and architecture. In a similar but more abstract way, the skills of watercolor are often applied to express the beauty of nature.
This exhibit was on display along the Art & Architecture Gallery wall, located in the Art & Architecture library in Cowgill Hall. There are plans to host additional exhibits and artwork in the future so be sure to stop by and stay tuned for more.
