Biophilia
No Customer Reviews
A New York Times bestseller, Christopher Marley's Biophilia is a collection of his creative art made from the natural world and wildlife. Christopher Marley's art expresses his passionate engagement with the beautiful forms of nature. Beginning with insects and moving on to aquatic life, reptiles, birds, plants, and minerals, Marley has used his skills as a designer, conservator, taxidermist, and environmentally responsible collector to make images and mosaics that produce strong, positive emotional responses in viewers. Marley has a brilliant eye for color and pattern in different natural objects, and he expertly captures the deep relationships among them. Biophilia (literally, "love of living things") is a must-have for nature lovers, designers, artists, craftspeople, and anyone looking for visual inspiration in the arts. "Christopher Marley's Biophilia is much more than a sumptuous coffee-table pleasure. It is also an elegant manifesto meant to nudge us off our couches and easy chairs and out the door." --New York Times "Nature can seem messy, chaotic, even frightening, but in Christopher Marley's world, it's a bounty of useable materials that can be infinitely organized and aestheticized." --Slate
