PHOTOS: 'The Art Motel' at Life is Beautiful
"The Art Motel" is a 13,000 square foot vacant motel in Las Vegas that was turned into an interactive art exhibit by a Santa Fe art collective known as Meow Wolf. The project is sponsored by Zappos, and will be unveiled at the Life is Beautiful festival in Downtown Las Vegas.Lindsey Kennedy courtesy of Meow Wolf
21 hotel rooms surround a 6,000 square foot courtyard. In the center sits "Helter Shelter," a collection of neo-psychedelic huts. One has a lazer harp that vents fog into the air above the village, while another allows visitors to create their own light and sound displays on a glowing wall of arcade-style buttons.Lindsey Kennedy courtesy of Meow Wolf
