10-04-10 Day 277: The Tree of Life
Day 277: As a family, we went to Disney's Animal Kingdom. One of the coolest things was the "Tree Of Life" exhibit. If you look closely at this tree, you will see many animals carved into it. It's a fascinating tree. Inside, you watch a movie about a Bug's Life, complete with sound effects, visual 3d effects, and things poking you.
Here is some more info on "The Tree of Life" lifted from one of Disney's webpages:
The “Tree of Life,” at Animal Kingdom branches outwardly, going beyond the ever so aspiring magical feeling. The swirling symbolic tapestry, encompassing over 325 hand sculpted animal carvings is an astounding tribute to the 10 artisans and 3 "imagineers".
These creative minds and artistic hands spent 18 months, working together to create this magnificent awe inspiring masterpiece.
Its’ gnarled roots of animal carvings goes deep into the earth where they blend into the lush landscape of flora and fauna. Brooks trickle through, waterfalls cascade down, forming small pools of water and deep green vines draping down graciously over the edges. It all blends together, creating a natural habitat to the various species that share this inspiring kingdom.
The swirling interconnectedness of the animal sculpted carvings is symbolic to the meaning of the tree of life. It's all about humanity with it's beauty coming together in a celebration of the heart to worship the fact that we are all one, connected to each other in one way or another.
A deep loving presence, bonds us all, through an interconnectedness to the animal world and all of the natural habitat on our planet Earth. The effect is to not only bring this concept to life but to provided an amazing emotional impact as you stand beneath this ever inspiring masterpiece, Hence her title, "The Tree of Life."
