That’s not Photoshop. The Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde has developed a way to create a small, perfect
white cloud
in the middle of a room. It requires meticulous planning: the
temperature, humidity and lighting all have to be just so. Once
everything is ready, Smilde summons the cloud out of the air using a fog
machine. It lasts only moments, but the effect is dramatic and
strangely moving. It evokes both the surrealism of Magritte and the
classical beauty of the old masters while reminding us of the
ephemerality of art and nature.
