Millions of Dust Particles Floating in the Air

This art installation at Clark Shoes Headquarters in Street Somerset, South England and was commissioned by Mr Lance Clark and is the first phase of two, of the art work situated in the communal court yard in the heart of Clarks office buildings.

As wind and light changes during the day and the seasons, the dynamic of the installation alters – sometimes wild, illuminating the entire space, at other times calm reflecting the colors of the surroundings on grey
days.link
