Last weekend I had the opportunity to view an installation by botanical artist Paula Hayes at the Lever House in NYC. Her work, *Land Mind*, depicts environments that live at the intersection of landscape and imagination.

Taking the shape and texture of her blown glass creations, the aquarium was built from a solid block of acrylic, hollowed out to house an array of saltwater fish and plants. Take a look at how art, life and design coexist in Ms. Hayes' micro worlds:
