Everyone knows about the birds and the bees, but have you ever heard the one about the birds, the bees, and the baby rabbits who live under the ocean, breathing through straws until a momma rabbit comes to pick them up with the little boat on her head? Yeah, us neither…at least not yet anyway. But starting on June 27th you can come on over to Mew Gallery to check out a miniature ocean, an exhibition of new work by Darla Jackson.
Jackson, known for creating strange animal sculptures, uses animals and symbolism to tell bizarre tales. Yet as far out as some of these stories may seem, they’re all rooted in expressing the duality of human emotion.
a miniature ocean was conceived by Jackson shortly after she had found out that she had conceived…a baby. After having read scary book after scary book on the birthing process, she came across a much less scary book that compared her belly to “a miniature ocean”. Jackson ran with the idea, putting her own spin on it, of course.
The exhibition opens on June 27th and runs through July 30th.
A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, June 27th at 5pm atMew Gallery 906 Christian Street, Philadelphia, PA.

Who I'd like to meet: interns!!!
