SuperArtificial Makerspace

Art Installation

Welcome to the SuperArtificial Garden

Inspired by artist Calder Kamin

April 22, 2022 – August 21, 2022

Guests were invited into the Interactive Media Theater to create their own upcycled creations, inspired by Kamin’s SuperArtificial art installation, and her exploration of reusing waste plastics. Materials were sourced in partnership with Art From Scrap. Guests could add their creations to the garden bed, or, take them home.

This exhibit was part of MOXI’s Climate Change Challenge, presented by Sonos and generously sponsored by Bank of America, Cox, the Schlinger Family Foundation, and Southern California Gas Company.
