Pd6: Lydia Naser

The most memorable part of my spring break was going to Washington D.C.  We only went for the first three days of break, but we still did a lot.  We saw the Archives, the Spy museum, and a lot of other neat places, but my favorite part was going to the Renwick Gallery.  It's a small museum that has different exhibits every couple months.  When we went, the exhibit was called Wonder.  It had a lot of really abstract, unusual art.  For example, in one room there was this massive net-like thing hanging from the ceiling that lit up different colors, and you had to lie down on the floor to look at it.  Another room was art made from really big, strange insects, from places like Indonesia, that the artist had pinned to the walls in really intricate patterns.  Then there was another room where the artist had taken millions of index cards and layered them in a way so that they looked like mountains.  They were huge!  There was a lot of really awesome art there and I'm glad we got to go before the exhibit closed because it was really unique and inspiring.
