Caitlind Brown’s Shimmering Cloud of 6,000 Light Bulbs

Interactive installation / sculpture with a simple concept.

CLOUD is a large-scale interactive sculpture created from 5,000 re-appropriated domestic light bulbs. Constructed from steel, metal, pull strings, burnt out incandescent bulbs, and illuminated compact fluorescent bulbs, CLOUD invites the viewer to wander through a rain of pull strings switching on and off lights. By manipulating the sculpture audiences will activate CLOUD’s inner sphere animating light bulbs and creating the illusion of lightning on the cloud’s surface.
