Okuda San Miguel's "Air Sea Land" downtown Boston - art installation in the day and night!
When living in big cities sometimes you stumble upon art installations. Not all of the ones I encounter move me - but Okuda San Miguel's "Air Sea Land" definitly caught my eye.
Instead of giving you my interpretation on the art, here's the synopsis via https://www.bostonseaport.xyz/okuda:
The Spanish contemporary artist Okuda brings his iconic “pop-surrealist” art form to Seaport through seven monumental sculptures lining Seaport Boulevard. In form, they are vibrant and lively; in concept, they serve as a tale of life, coexistence, and environment. Okuda reflects on ancient ideas that man has wrestled with since the dawn of time: genesis and the creation of diverse animal species. The sculptures portray how animals developed—first by light and water, untouched by human influence, and then later shaped by humans. Additionally, he examines the importance of mythology in the shared history of animals and mankind. As his world continues to unfold, Okuda separated animals into two simplified categories—domestic and wild—as a reminder of the delicate, natural balance of our environment. By using geometric, multi-colored surfaces, Okuda invites the viewer into his imagination, where one can expand their thoughts on evolution, coexistence, and harmony.
I wasn't sure how long the installation was going to be around so I had to make sure to snap some photos during the evening as if you know me - 99% of the time I prefer night photos as they're more dramatic.
So with all that being said, here are photos of Okuda San Miguel's "Air Sea Land" taken in the Boston Seaport during the day and night...
Leave a comment below as I'm curious to know if you prefer the night or the day images. If you say the day photos - you - are - crazy! 😜
They remind me of origami. Night is better and more difficult to get. Thanks for sharing.

Very interesting, I like the squirrel!
Very neat work by the artist, and the night photos are without question taken at night and block out a lot of background clutter into the darkness so those have to be better for that alone.
Thanks for the feedback! Nighttime all the way!
The geometric shapes and colors are amazing. Here in our country I often just see wooden sculptures and those made from plaster of paris. It's a good thing you were able to get some shots to share with us. The buck is my favorite of them all.
Cool - thanks for letting me know your thoughts!
So amazing! Even look beautiful on daytime!
