CLOUD 9 / 2022 / 23
by KLAUS HU / 2022 - 23
Klaus Hu currently paints cloud
formations, found above his studio in Berlin the last
several years. Some recorded, some stored in the archive.
Lets not be simple to confuse cloud painting and
storytelling. Imagination is the one source, translation
is the other. Towards each cloud, a small story will
evolve. The first have been filed under the "uncanny”. How
the series will unfold, cannot be predicted, but for sure
it will be clouds recorded from above the studio space in
Berlin, delivering poetic or prose like short stories
towards each chapter. Clouds have a fleeting and ephemeral
consistency, neither representing a subject. Their
appearance taking any shape let them become the ideal
projection of transit states. This work series does not
dream of escapism, but after a content loaded work period,
this interim work series provides calm and frenzy for an
ambiguity of interpretations. Each cloud even seemingly
bears its own time frame for truth and fiction. And for
reflection.
Soth, Chris and Phillip went into an auction house
... and never came out alive again.
there must have been some mushroom clouds hovering...
