When it comes to art, I have a particular high respect for low budget pieces that are simply spectacular.
Not that I don’t appreciate big productions at all, but most of the time, a piece that didn’t use money to exist means the artists used a strong enough concept or powerful enough idea to make it work.
CLOUD is spectacular in just that way.
The Calgary-based artists, Caitlind Brown & Wayne Garrett, collected more than 6000 burnt out incandescent light bulbs from local households, businesses, museums, and eco stations to create this interactive sculpture.
The magic of CLOUD comes to life through its audience. As the crowd walks under the cloud they pull ON\OFF strings that control the illumination of the structure and by so give the cloud a mesmerizing effect.
Pure Heaven.
