We especially enjoyed the LEGO art on display at McKee Gardens over the holidays.  It was great to see such creative sculptures by talented artist Sean Kenney in “Nature Connects: Art with LEGO Bricks”. 

Click on any of the pictures to enlarge and see details about how many LEGO bricks are in the sculpture and how many hours it took to create it.  For example, the Polar Bear with Cubs sculpture is the most complex – it is composed of 133,263 LEGO bricks and took 1,048.5 hours to build.

    What a terrific exhibit, Pam- thanks for sharing these incredibly detailed Lego structures! We once had a place in Vero quite near McKee Gardens and I loved visiting there. In addition to the beauty of the gardens, they often seem to have unique special displays throughout the grounds. I wasn’t sure if they were back open since COVID …. haven’t been there in several years.

    It’s worth going again sometime. It’s always beautiful, and we especially enjoy the seasonal exhibits. It was closed for a brief while for COVID, but opened back up when everyone was used to social distancing.

    It’s amazing what can be done with legos. My lego creations were definitely much simpler than the beautiful ones you shared here.
