A gallery with no sculptures, only a cloud floating within the space. 'Nimbus' is a new installation of Amsterdam-based artist Berndnaut Smilde, who refuses to explain how he managed to create a real cloud
crazy! hope it isn't a hoax (or a repost for that matter)

Not real, not vapour based anyway and the light refraction looks unrealistic.

Turns out they are made from smoke and moisture around a spot light.

Cool. He probably had to invent an invisibility cloak first to hide the cloud machine.

I've read up a different interview where he explains in bare detail how he did it. I bet this interviewer was just a tnuc. Either that or he works for VICE.

In fact here it is;

But how does Smilde get the cloud to hang around long enough to hide the smoke machine and compose the shot? "By moistening the air you can shape and keep the cloud from falling apart directly as the moist sticks to it making the smoke heavier," Smilde explains. "Also when the space is really cold it prevents the smoke from rising too quickly. Basically that's it, and of course a lot of practice."
