January 2nd, 2026
Safe, hands-on, and full of adventure for the whole family—this is not your average theme park.

When you’re visiting the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, so much of the activities are vastly the same. It’s almost like taking one thing, slapping a new coat of paint on it, and giving it a new name. In Sevierville though, there is a place that stands out and is unlike anywhere else and that is DIG ‘N ZONE THEME PARK.

Excavators, Cranes, Tractors oh my! Almost every kid growing up has played with some tractor, crane, or truck; rolling it across the ground as their imaginations ran wild. Their little minds dreamt of driving them and using their equipment; well DIG ‘N ZONE made it possible for those dreams to come alive.

DIG ‘N ZONE is a theme park loaded with construction vehicles that are reformatted so that parents and kids can ride in them, drive them, and experience using them in a safe environment. The excitement was so paramount on the faces of all of the children.

They were being able to do what was deemed too dangerous and off limits. Now; they were using cranes to knock over pegs, to grab gators out of the water, and attach a barrel of monkeys.

Then came the excavators. My son and daughter loved using it to pick up tons of dirt and fling it up in a pile. Before this moment the most they had ever done was using a toy machine crane to lift up some candy. This, though, was the real McCoy and they were really doing it.

DIG ‘N ZONE was also like an incredible Go-kart palace with multiple tracks but here you drove on Tractors. Steamrollers, Jeeps, and Lawnmowers.

I have a four year old daughter who did great driving her own mini versions around the curving tracks. For me, I really enjoyed the huge John Deere Mower that turned so easily you felt like you were drifting around the track.

Rounding out this one-of-a-kind theme park was a cool barrel train, a gem mine, some pedal bikes, and a cool splash pad with slides. The thrill seekers weren’t forgotten about either. They have a ride called the Decimator. This 50,000 pound monster, a CAT 320, spins you around and around. Also taking you up and down, forwards and backwards. My son absolutely loved it, but I must say, I chickened out.

DIG ‘N ZONE was so much fun and so original. I enjoyed being there as much as my kids did and that’s saying something. As an added bonus, this theme park made you really appreciate our construction workers, and value their incredible equipment. For something fun, different, and of good value, definitely check it out.

BODYSCAPES Ignites the Miami Design District
A Miami art experience that reimagines the female form as an evolving emotional landscape, honoring the ways women navigate vulnerability, transformation, and strength within the intimate terrain of their own bodies.
December 1, 2025
Miami is about to welcome an exhibition unlike anything else this season. A forty foot LED wall is lighting up the Design District with a monumental digital environment entirely shaped by women. BODYSCAPES, presented by Barcelona’s Load Gallery, opens its Miami edition at Jayaram Law Studio, and I was invited in early for a viewing before the public arrives.
Walking into the space felt like entering an emotional landscape rather than an exhibition. The imagery unfolded slowly at first, then washed over the room with color, motion, and softness that carried both vulnerability and undeniable strength. Bodies appeared as if carved from water and light. Figures dissolved into sky. The screen shifted from quiet introspection to powerful presence. As a woman, the experience felt deeply personal, as if the installation was acknowledging the parts of womanhood we often hold quietly.
Load founder Alex Simorré partnered with Miami attorney and arts advocate Vivek Jayaram to bring this exhibition to the United States. Jayaram shared that it is “one of the most compelling projects we have ever had the honor to host,” and after seeing it firsthand, the meaning behind those words becomes obvious.
Miami is a city that embraces complexity. Beauty, reinvention, identity, culture, movement, and resilience all coexist here. BODYSCAPES feels made for that landscape. It honors the nuance of womanhood and invites viewers to step into an immersive world that mirrors the emotional terrains women navigate every day.
Fourteen women artists, each expanding the body into something vast
BODYSCAPES features a global roster of women artists, each approaching the body as a living environment shaped by nature, memory, and emotion. Their work spans photography, digital video, AI, performance, and conceptual visual storytelling.
The full Miami lineup includes
Farrah Carbonell, Dancevatar, I M Devi, Michelle van Dijk, Alba Duque, Maria Fynsk Norup, Adaeze Okaro, Natalie Karpushenko, Emi Kusano, Christy Lee Rogers, SERIFA, Ivona Tau, X New Worlds, and Zhuk.
Together, they create a collective vision of womanhood that is fluid, surreal, grounded, and powerful.
Moments inside the exhibition that stayed with me
Alba Duque
Duque’s work confronts womanhood with radical honesty. In the group scenes, women gather across city streets and desert landscapes, walking shoulder to shoulder in underwear and soft neutrals. The effect is powerful. These bodies are unfiltered and real. They carry softness and stretch marks and strength with equal visibility. In quieter images, women hold their stomachs, hips, and thighs with a tenderness that feels both vulnerable and revolutionary. One of the most striking photographs shows a woman crouched low in the dust, holding another woman in a gesture of exhaustion and care. Another reveals a close-up of hands gripping the folds of skin on a stomach, a rare moment of truth that feels almost intimate to witness. Duque’s images celebrate women exactly as they are. No hiding. No smoothing. No pretending.

Christy Lee Rogers
Rogers’ underwater worlds feel almost cosmic. In one image, a woman floats against a star-flecked indigo sky, her white ruffled dress blooming around her like a constellation. In another, deep blue fabric twists around bodies tangled in motion, their limbs fading into shadow until they feel more like emotion than anatomy. The pink and lavender photographs toward the bottom of the page glow like memories half submerged, soft and dreamlike, as if you are witnessing a moment of surrender beneath the water’s surface.

Ivona Tau
Tau’s work shifts between digital fragmentation and bold color. One image shows a woman outlined in neon green and red, her profile dissolving into pixel-like texture that feels both artificial and strangely intimate. Another shows three women in sculptural blue forms, their bodies shaped into angular planes that look almost architectural. In the softer blue portraits, the figures’ faces melt into smooth, mask-like surfaces that suggest both anonymity and tenderness. Tau’s world is uncanny and emotional at the same time, revealing how digital distortion can expose truths rather than hide them.

Adaeze Okaro
Okaro’s photographs glow with deep amber and gold. Her women stand against a textured ochre backdrop, wrapped in flowing tulle that lifts and falls like flames. In one image, a figure is almost entirely veiled by soft orange fabric, holding a bouquet of white roses that feels ceremonial, almost sacred. In another, a woman raises her arms with slow, deliberate grace, the fabric pooling and drifting around her as if she is summoning light. The floral crown portraits are especially powerful, transforming the subject into a living sculpture of beauty, ritual, and self-possession.

What BODYSCAPES leaves you with
BODYSCAPES is not simply a digital installation. It is an emotional encounter. It views the female body not as an object but as a landscape of lived experience. Memory, tension, softness, conflict, healing, and rising strength all appear across the screen in forms that feel familiar in ways that words cannot always explain.
Standing there in the glow of the forty foot screen, I felt a sense of recognition. It was the recognition that every woman holds multitudes. That our bodies carry stories. That vulnerability and power are not opposites but companions. BODYSCAPES gives those truths space to breathe.
Miami will see many exhibitions this season, but this one feels singular. It feels like a place where women can finally be seen without restraint.
