The Garden is blooming BIG! Super Bloom by Graphic Rewilding invites visitors to get outdoors and connect with nature in a big way. Step inside glass houses radiating color and light, sit among flower clouds surrounded by blooms and find your center in a magical, night-blooming garden. This playful and engaging exhibition provides an artistic view of the Garden’s trails and plant collections, promotes wellness through nature and inspires visitors of all ages to explore the beauty and colors of desert plants with abandon. With more than 21 larger-than-life installations across the Garden, Super Bloom creates an immersive journey for visitors that can be experienced both day and night. The largest-ever solo exhibition by artists Lee Baker and Catherine Borowski takes an up-close look at the wonders of the Sonoran Desert in a vibrantly illustrated celebration of desert flowers and pollinators. Explore a world of giant flowers, colorful petals and joyful, larger-than-life art created by Graphic Rewilding. Member VIP Preview: Join us Oct. 8 from 6-9 p.m. for an exclusive VIP Preview celebrating the premiere of Super Bloom by Graphic Rewilding.

About the Artists Graphic Rewilding, founded by creative duo Catherine Borowski and Lee Baker are on a mission to transform public spaces with their vast, nature inspired, immersive art. A chance encounter on a flight to New York 13 years ago sparked a profound creative partnership. Borowski’s background in large-scale curation inspired Baker to bring his studio-based nature art into the public realm and Graphic Rewilding was born. Now their unique blend of creativity, spatial vision and material innovation continues to rejuvenate unlikely spaces across the globe. By uniting art and community, they create a colourful hybrid world where nature is reimagined on a maximalist, pictorial scale, embracing what they call “microscopic maximalism.” Through this approach, the tiniest details are magnified to monumental proportions, revealing the hidden magic in everyday life and sparking a sense of childlike wonder in their viewers. Drawing inspiration from sources as diverse as Japanese Ink painting, Dutch still-life, and contemporary visionaries like Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Yayoi Kusama as well glass artists like Brian Clarke and John Piper, they craft graphically powerful compositions brimming with energy and lightness.
