OMSI Featured Creatures

OMSI [Oregon Museum of Science and Industry]'s current featured exhibit area is filled with 'Exquisite Creatures'. Both an apt description and the title is an art and biological gallery by artist Christopher Marley. Upon entering through the first curtain visitors are shown a short introductory video describing a small amount of the artists' background, inspiration, and the creation of this collection. Marley concludes with the hope that viewers sit in the moment with the emotions that the pieces deliver. I certainly did.

I cried on and off, mostly on, for the hour+ that it took for me to go through.

It started with an explosion.
