Cosmovitral Botanical Garden
Stained glass windows bathe this botanical garden in cosmic light
 |
| When the sun shines through the windows, the building is awash in deep reds and warm blues, making the artful garden feel both organic and cosmic. |
 |
| Housed in a former marketplace in Toluca, Mexico, the Cosmovitral Botanical Garden is filled with stained glass pieces that some say make the beauty of the flora within wither in comparison. |
 |
| The centerpiece of the collection is a huge central glass wall known as The Sun Man. |
After the market closed down in the 1970s, the Cosmovitral was repurposed as a botanical garden and outfitted with a number of colossal works of stained glass art in 1980.

“We may shine, we may shatter, We may be picking up the pieces here on after, We are fragile, we are human, And we are shaped by the light we let through us, We break fast, cause we are glass. We are glass.”
