I was thrilled to experience ZimSculpt at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden this year. So much so, my husband and I went two days in a row this week. The first day we visited the gardens with my sweet Aunt Jean and saw half the exhibit along with the onsite ZimSculpt Marketplace. We also got to see and talk to the gifted artist Passmore Mupindiko again. The second day we went back to see the rest of the sculptures.
Most of the sculptures at this year’s ZimSculpt we hadn’t seen before. I particularly loved the sculptures in the Rose Garden. Unintentionally, I gravitated toward the ones featuring women and children. This visit was full of reflective moments. My mother passed away nine days after our last ZimSculpt visit in 2019, and my aunt’s son passed away unexpectedly a year ago around this same time. I reflected on my mother’s life and my two grandmothers who passed away several years ago. Both of my kids are young adults now. With all these changes, a new season of life is here. Even with all the changes and great losses, walking through the garden this year with the amazing ZimSculpt art was healing in many ways.
Take a look at what caught my eye!
