He is known for his Nimbus series — photographs of artificial clouds. The artist is fascinated by duality, so his work aims to investigate the notion of inside and outside, the function of materials and architectural elements, temporality, and size. Berndnaut is renowned for his Nimbus body of work, which has gathered a lot of public attention. Since , he has been creating fluffy, dense clouds indoors, using an array of equipment. Smilde creates ethereal clouds that disperse after 10 seconds, which is just enough to get them photographed.
He makes ephemeral and mysterious miniature clouds in various locations, from churches and castles to NeueHouse on the 25th Street in New York, in honor of Frieze New York. The only condition is that the venue is damp and cold, without air circulation. The photographer takes a photo of the cloud, as soon as the artist creates it. Sometimes it takes clouds to make a perfect photo. Berndnaut Smilde likes the duality that clouds possess — indoors instead of outdoors, they can be both threatening and very serene, depending on the context.
They are like goals and plans which seem achievable until you reach for them and they fall apart just a few seconds later. Apart from his hugely-popular Nimbus series, the artist has collaborated and carried out various other projects. What a gift to our community! Please join me in supporting Nimbus. What a Night!
