i would honestly live here. i want an entire world like this room, it for some reason just brings me so much joy

[@Mugruncher]

There is nothing stopping you from turning your own home into an ever changing wonderland of trippy art 🌈☮️👍💖

"Where would my 5 yr old self want to love and never leave?" Ah, I didn't realize how out of touch I had grown with questions like that... Thank you. ^_^ Sawubona. ♥ Edit: This video is genuinely gorgeous. The way the sounds for the mushrooms were recorded, the integration of the tech closet into the tree; so many marriages of form and function. ♥ Thank you so much for showing the inner workings of your work(s) and for allowing us to, at least partially, enjoy the process which led you there. I absolutely adore this company. It inspires me.

Tbh, I wonder what a whole meow wolf Theme park would be like, and not just a dark ride or walk through experience

[@ally9261]

The forest was definitely my favorite part there. I felt so happy and comfortable; it's so impressive what all these artists are capable of when they come together and have so many ideas! I'm beyond impressed with how they never managed to give up even through all the bumps and struggles. Truly amazing.

[@forreststevens1146]

This process looks like a labor of love and innovation. The intent of the individuals shinesin the process of teamwork and common goals

[@elizabethalvarado8698]

I could be in that part, all day, and probably curl up, for a nap, in one spot.

[@candydoggo8926]

Can I just say how unreasonably happy it makes me seeing these videos and hearing the artists complain/explain how much work was put into them? I feel so validated as an artist for the way I complain about the process during the process but at the same time being so happy to see it come to life that "i'm not actually all that pissed i'm just a little annoyed." vibe g0d ThE ENERGY OF "This took me fucking weeks I swear- Jesus christ it better be damning because it was so much fucking work just doing this small tedious task over and over-" IS SO LIBERATING

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[@alisonalbright1756]

Can you imagine if every city had an abandoned superstore or mall that was transformed into experiences like this? I was blown away by Meow Wolf last week when we visited NM. I can't wait to see the other locations and want an interactive experience like this close to my home so I can visit and be inspired as often as I'd like.

[@analogkid28]

I love the forest...and the little creatures that make the coolest little sounds...💕

[@jellybeesplease]

I would absolutely love to work for Meow Wolf. Only issue is that I live in the UK - maybe you’ll branch your tendrils out to other countries one day?

[@bludraws094]

“We need to make them sparkle.” Also, no dislikes!!!!

[@killianb776]

I'm trying to do this to my bathroom

[@avasolis6470]

Ooh! Now that's called space forest in Meow Wolf! Well let's say this so cool!

[@elizabethalvarado8698]

I visited that place, last year, and this part of the House feels like someplace I could curl up and nap in.

[@d34dh4v3n]

I remember coming here, and one moment I saw three ladies who made me cookies and were looking for their "man".

[@chrisesquibel13]

Dead Haven are you weren’t just tripping lol

[@d34dh4v3n]

@@chrisesquibel13 You haven't been to Meow Wolf before, have you?

I live near a place called Asheville with an exhibit called the looking glass. This reminds me of that. Edit: Asheville NC
