US-JAPAN-ART-ARCHITECTURE
Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya spent a year painstakingly recording and examining weather data from a specially built weather station as she studied ways to shroud architect Philip Johnson's Glass House in fog as seen on September 11, 2014 in New Caanan, Connecticut . In the end, she threw caution to the wind, giving up largely on the idea of precisely calibrating the fog and instead letting nature take its course and shape the mist. "Nature is the mold and wind sculpts it. To let it tells its own story is the whole point," Nakaya said in an interview. The octogenarian artist has crafted sculptures out of fog around the world for the past 44 years, wrapping fields, forests, kids parks and public plazas in a fine mist.She shapes the intangible formations using specialized nozzles calibrated to respond to local conditions such as topography, winds and humidity.
