I'm Berndnaut Smilde and I'm a visual artist
There's something dramatic about clouds which I really like.
There's always something dark about them, you don't know what's going to happen.
And people through the centuries have been projecting so many ideas and myths around clouds.
It’s about good luck and fertility, and threatening situations.
I really like the fleeting aspect of it. It’s just there for that small bit and disappears again.
For me it is very useful to have a place to put your work, and make an exposition online.
You can search for certain words, like if you say, “Nimbus,”
you would get all of the works that are called “Nimbus.”
If you zoom in, you can really get into the image, you can almost see the bricks.
It’s really handy to work with my gallery, so they can put stuff on there,
or I can put stuff on there, and they can rearrange it.
You can see curators, they look on the internet for artists.
It’s just combining everything together in a much faster way than it used to be.
