Megan and I went to the Leonardo on Friday. I haven't been since seeing the Bodies exhibit there, but guys, it's actually a pretty cool place.
Probably the (very strange and surreal) highlight of the trip was spending a few minutes to watch the artsie film Green Porno. Ha. It's the weirdest thing I've seen in a long time. Isabella Rossellini plays the part of different animals and insects to display how they mate. It was educational, fascinating, horrifying at times, and all-together intriguing. I actually recommend it. But be prepared for it to be weird. And slightly inappropriate.
But there's other things to see at The Leonardo, too! We got to "digital paint" for a while, and I made Sylvester the Snake below. It was fun in a way I haven't had in a while. Like, kid fun.
And they also had a station where you could look into a mirrored glass that also reflected a paper below so that you could trace your own face. Here's Megan taking a turn:
Sometimes I forget about the fun things in my own backyard here in Salt Lake. It takes a friend to say, hey, I want to do something fun downtown! for me to realize that I have a lot of culture and opportunity surrounding me. So, friends, never hesitate to suggest hanging out downtown. I love the adventure of it! And if you want to go to The Leonardo, let me know. They're getting a huge Mummies exhibit in on February 16th, and I'm really excited to go!
