I visit the “Bugs” exhibit at the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park. This traveling exhibit was created by the New Zealand Museum in partnership with Weta Workshop (the film and SFX studio that created “The Lord of the Rings” series). The exhibit is a lavish experience in light, color, and sound.
The exhibit places the viewer inside the insect world at a scale of a bug. The bugs are detailed, realistic, and human-sized, making them as terrifying as they are beautiful.
