Since I remember myself clouds have been one of d biggest inspiration for me. When I start drawing illustrations with wooden colors d clouds were d first thing that pop out on my paper. After I start doin’ d street art & graffiti d clouds were my background for most of d letters_ ‘word graffiti I have done. ..even in my poetry there are different stories and scenes where I use d clouds as motive or inspiration.
I’ve done some #art installation.s and scene designs where I used cotton to improvise forms that associate with clouds and give d metaphor for that cloudy atmosphere in d environment.

Floe:detail
The Adelaide-born artist hunts down chandeliers where he can find them – op shops, garage sales, and even eBay – to create these staggering installations. Sometimes older pieces aren’t in the best condition, so he rebuilds the lights (but, despite this tinkering, still counts these as “found objects”).
. ..anyway, whatever he use to make his masterpieces he use like first amazing concept and great way to express sometimes even surreal theatrical situations and scenes. If you want to see more from his works u can check his personal page [ Nicholas Folland ] or just google it there are a lot of articles about him 🙂
