“Dark Cloud” (2021) is an inflatable sculpture elevated in public space by 19m3 of helium. Attached to the ground by ropes, lifted above the public, this sculpture works as a metaphor for the current situation. A surrealist view about what, in the popular imagination, a black cloud can mean today in the social, political and economic context we are living.
