Simon Denis' Dreamy Day Study of Clouds

A monumental hand-made composition measuring over five feet in height, this work renders Simon Denis' dreamy study of clouds with the quiet authority of a curator's first acquisition. Metal, acrylic, wood, and nail-work converge in a silvered surface that catches and diffuses light in the manner of an overcast afternoon sky — atmospheric, shifting, unhurried. The scale commands a wall with architectural confidence while the subject matter dissolves any sense of heaviness, suspending the room in a moment of studied reverie.
