Cloud Tree Sculpture: Form and Surface Variations

Cloud-like polished canopies extend along a sweeping branch structure, pairing a natural silhouette with reflective metal surfaces.

Project Overview

Form, surface and proportion.

This sculptural tree is defined by its asymmetrical canopy, curved trunk and tapered pedestal. The selected images show workshop views and two surface presentations: an exposed metal appearance and a dark trunk with a black pedestal. They are presented as variations of the cloud-tree form, rather than a documented before-and-after sequence.

Dimensioned Reference

A reference for the overall proportions.

The supplied dimensioned presentation shows the dark-finish version. Its annotations are reference information, rather than independently verified as-built measurements.

Workshop Record

The branching form on the workshop table.

Workshop photographs show the tree structure supported on temporary stands, with polished cloud forms arranged along the branches. These views reveal the junctions and the relationship between the curved trunk and reflective canopy.

Finished Views

Reflective canopies, contrasting surfaces.

The exposed-metal presentation provides a closer view of the branching structure and cloud-like forms. The dark-finish version above offers another treatment of the same sculptural theme.
