Step inside a garden of unearthly delights.
Petrit Halilaj has transformed the Palacio de Cristal of the @MuseoReinaSofia into a fantasical bird's nest for the artist's first exhibition in Spain. Titled ‘To a raven and hurricanes that from unknown places bring back smells of humans in love,’ the sprawling installation incorporates natural surroundings and is meant to also attract the real-life birds and other animals that inhabit the surrounding park. As the museum's first show since its COVID-enforced shutdown, Halilaj ‘wanted to conceive Palacio de Cristal as a place for the celebration of love.’

Visitors can explore the show now through February 2021.
