The incredible sculptures, created by Nathan Sawaya, will take you beyond what you thought was possible with LEGO®, and the moving installations and 360° projections in huge rooms will leave you in awe. Sawaya has forever changed the way people view LEGO® as well as art, with his incredible colourful sculptures that have travelled around the world. Now in this new immersive version of his acclaimed exhibition Art of the Brick, visitors will be able to explore more than ten themed rooms filled with impressive original collections.
The exhibit rooms include among many other things, endangered species projected in their habitats in a 20,000 square feet projection room. An installation of more than 250 LEGO® skulls moving in a series of waves, as well as some of the largest LEGO® sculptures ever made. With the use of artificial reality, cutting-edge technology, and video mapping, the exhibition ensures that the sculptures come alive and transport you into the world of Nathan Sawaya.
The incredible sculptures are sure to spark your imagination and as part of the experience you can become part of the creative process too. You can build your own art in the build area, and take home your favourite LEGO® sets to continue your artistic journey. With so much to do and see, you’ll want to secure your place by buying your tickets before the experience closes on September 1!
