The artist managed to lower the sky to the ground, bring something that is usually so high and inaccessible, to give people the opportunity to walk along the road with clouds. Eduardo Coimbra in your art project Projecto nuvem … Its name is translated as "Cloud", and the installation itself seems to be just as light, airy and soaring above the ground. The imposing installation consists of five huge display cases, lightboxes set in a crowded area, which depict photographs of snow-white clouds against a blue sky. Moreover, everything is so cleverly arranged that it is repentant that these showcases have stood here since ancient times, and that is why they fit so organically into the surrounding space, literally merging with the city landscape.
In fact, everything is much simpler. On the sides, the showcases are equipped with mirrors, which help them dissolve in space and create the impression of being suspended above the ground. However, these clouds are especially beautiful at night, when lanterns are lit - and lightboxes with fluorescent backlighting, flickering sparks and lights. So you can enjoy the beauty of man-made earthly clouds at any time, even at night. Learn more on the Projecto Nuvem project site.
