Video ItemIn Search of Beauty , video
In Search of the Beauty of Nature by Tianming Zhao is an exhibit featuring watercolor paintings and leaf prints inspired by natural beauty. The appreciation of nature is always a guideline for organic architecture. Each leaf, twig and stone have stories to tell, and when combined, they compose a sonata of art and architecture. In a similar but more abstract way, the skills of watercolor are often applied to express the beauty of nature. This exhibit was on display along the Art & Architecture Gallery wall, located in the Art & Architecture library in Cowgill Hall. There are plans to host additional exhibits and artwork in the future so be sure to stop by and stay tuned for more. Video by Liz McVoy and Sophia Trout for Virginia Tech
