Cloudiness

Looking at 'cloudiness' in different contexts. Personal project plus collaboration with Joseph Piper. We first investigated putting a sound cloud into a room, recreating a thunderstorm inside rather than outside. We then investigated this idea of placing clouds in obsure environments. The current solution is the reinactment of the capture of a unique cloud, and it's display as an object of wonder and amazement.

A model was produced using 2 opposing parabolic mirrors, which was hidden inside a box. The scene was created on a top sheet, and a 'cloud' was placed inside the mirror to create the illusion of the cloud floating without it actually being touchable. Looking at the model from a 45 degree angle it appears as if it is floating, but try to touch the cloud and it is un-reachable.

I have also created a 193 page flipbook showing an animation of the car-park of an office renovation in Tower Hamlets as a personal investigation, spun off from our initial clouds research. Click HERE to open a new tab to the side to view.
