DENVER (CBS4) – A total of 110 Colorado artists are hard at work in a triangular building surrounded by highways in Denver as Meow Wolf gets set to open its latest permanent exhibition this fall. Meow Wolf is an arts and entertainment collective based in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
“Fasten your seatbelts, Meow Wolf Denver is our most ambitious project date! With hundreds of creatives working on this massive endeavor, including overwhelming talent from local Denver-based artists, we can’t wait for guests to experience the magic confined within these uniquely shaped walls,” Ali Rubinstein, CCO and Co-CEO of Meow Wolf, said in a news release.
“Starting this fall guest can explore four floors of exhibition space, with portals transporting them to worlds beyond their wildest imagination.”
Meow Wolf Denver promises a narratively complex installation as it worked artists across multiple mediums. The Colorado-based artists are as diverse as those mediums with 51% identifying as female, 20% identifying as LGBTQ+ and 38% as People of Color in an optional survey.
Those artists include Kayln Heffernan and collaborator Gregg Ziemba creating “Wheelchair Space Kitchen.” Cal Duran and David Ocelotl Gracia are exploring “Earth Spirits of the Subconscious Mind.” Molina Speaks takes us to “Indigenous Futurist Dreamscape Lounge.” And we’ll be able to visit the “Mongovoo Temple” from Mongolian collaborators Eriko Tsogo, Jennifer Tsogo, Tsogo Mijid and Batochi Batkhishig.
