This is no Disney-like adventure, but one in which nature and artistically created installations come together in harmony.Īrtists from the United Kingdom to the United States have been commissioned to create a series of installations, which activate the garden’s nocturnal landscape. Music is part of Lightscape, but in a subtle way. I took on my Lightscape adventure with a media colleague, an attorney/elected official who sits on a Court of Appeals bench and a powerful art gallerist. While I don’t want to give away all the surprises of this extraordinary wonderland, be prepared to slow down and leisurely stroll throughout a mile-long, gently rolling path. (Photo by CDA) A Kingdom of Plants Illuminated Enchantment is the calling card of Lightscape, now on view at Houston Botanic Garden. Claudia Gee Vassar, the face of the Houston Botanic Garden as its president and general counsel, says of the decision: “Lightscape serves as a way to introduce the garden to those who haven’t previously experienced it yet, while showing it off in a whole new light to those who have visited during daylight previously.”Īnd after touring the garden and taking in Lightscape - under a full moon, no less - this reporter can say Gee Vassar’s goal has been enchantingly realized. It promises to bring attention and increased audiences to this beautiful garden. So the idea to present the phenomenon of Lightscape at the Botanic Garden this holidays was inspired.
