*Cloud Chamber* operates as an oversized camera obscura, or pinhole camera. An aperture in the roof projects an inverted image of the sky onto the floor of the room. Inside, your perspective is turned upside down. Instead of looking up at the sky or trees, you look down on them from above. To experience *Cloud Chamber*, close the door behind you, take a seat, and let your eyes adjust to the darkness—an image of the sky and trees above will slowly appear on the floor and walls around you.
Chris Drury, *Cloud Chamber for the Trees and Sky*, 2003, stone, wood, and turf, approx. diam. 12 ft., Commissioned by the North Carolina Museum of Art with funds from the North Carolina State Art Society
