Inspiration: Artist Cildo Meireles

I was blown away by Brazilian artists Cildo Miereles' exhibit when I saw it at Tate Modern in London last winter. I swear he has the ability to create actual universes. When you enter one of his pieces it's as if you are being transported to another plane, they are so all encompassing and brilliant. The lighting, and the fantasy verse realism are overwhelmingly impactful.

I think the imiges are absolutely breathtaking! I can only imagone how it feels to see it up close.Human imagination has no limits, I find it to be the most wonderful ability. Having no limits and being able to translate it in the magnificent artistic way is a true talent. I wish I could see it with my own eyes. Thank you for sharing pictures!Beautiful post!

Thank you for your comments! I adored this exhibit! It was truly an incredible experience. If ever you get the chance to see his work in person I say RUN!

nycrun, to answer your question I pull from all over the internet and art books/magazines in addition to my own photos. I try to post the links when possible and will do more of that!
