About the event
Step into The Wild Side, an imaginative journey through the untamed spirit of the animal kingdom. This eclectic exhibit celebrates Earth’s non-human inhabitants—land dwellers, sea creatures, sky roamers, and microscopic marvels—through the eyes of artists working across all media and styles. From lifelike portrayals of majestic beasts to abstract interpretations of fur, feathers, fins, and patterns, The Wild Side invites viewers to reconnect with the wild, the instinctual, and the deeply interconnected web of life.
Whether it's the ripple of a jellyfish captured in glass, the geometry of a leopard's coat translated into paint, or a sculptural homage to a beetle’s armored beauty, each piece offers a perspective on the awe-inspiring diversity and resilience of animals. This is not just a showcase—it’s a reminder of the power, grace, mystery, and vulnerability of every creature that calls Earth home.
Come explore the raw and radiant force of nature.
