ROM's Chihuly Exhibition Review
I frequently get asked why I love visiting art exhibits so much from people who think they have no understanding of art. My answer is always the same:
It doesn't matter if you like or understand a piece of artwork, if it inspires conversation and dialogue and makes you see a different point of view or see something in a different light, it has accomplished it's goal. It is art and life would be so boring without it. I have been putting off visiting the ROM's latest giant exhibition,
Chihuly, until I was ready.

The weather had turned gloomy and the skies grey in Toronto over the
past few weeks, so I figured it was time for an art pick-me-up. Last week, I braced myself against the cold wind downtown Toronto and made my way to the ROM. It was exactly what I needed that cold Monday afternoon: bright, beautiful, uplifting, and superficial.
