Y es, it sounds crazy or totally fictional, but the appearance of a cloud in a closed room is possible. Thanks to the Dutch artist BerndnautSmilde! What looks like magic, turns out to be a carefully calculated science project made possible by smoke and vapour.
Smilde materials are little more than those listed above, and the results vary with the size, lighting and temperature of the location. The space must be cold and damp, with no air circulation. He creates a wall of water vapour with the type of spritzer you might use on houseplants. A smoke machine then sends a puff of faux fog on a collision course. There you go; you have those really mysterious, fluffy clouds.
Of course science alone doesn ‟ t account for the striking visual impact contained in each image. The artist carefully selects the perfect location for the creation of each cloud and then painstakingly lights it from behind for the desired effect. And then the photographer captures a very brief moment before the cloud could dissipate and disappear as mysteriously as it was formed.
Another way to produce these kinds of clouds is by using dry ice. When you place it into hot water, clouds of white fog are created. This white fog is a form of condensed vapour, mixed in with the invisible CO 2. But this method is highly dangerous because too much CO 2 is toxic. What makes it even more unsuitable is that, it might burn your skin by freezing( frostbite) and might also explode due to high pressure. Therefore, using a smoke machine is much more safe and eco-friendly.
“ Clouds are quite universal,” says Smilde.“ Everyone can relate to them, but by putting them indoors you kind of change the context. It can become strange or even threatening. They not only stand in for the divine, but also for misfortune.
