Radom Cumulus is a three-dimensional light object made of layers of curved neon contours, stacked horizontally on top of each other. The contours form a stylized cumulus cloud that rests on the very edge of the roof above the entrance of the new built museum. The 300 x 210 x 160 cm big light object was realized in November 2014.
The horizontal neon contours are direct sculptural representations of drawn hatchings, as seen in drawings of clouds on medieval maps: Drawing, object and light installation are combined, so that the transformed drawing of a cloud, here as a real and illuminated object, accentuates the urban space. Clouds are used as metaphors for the afterlife, for wanderlust, infinity and freedom of thought— for longings in general.
