Cape Farewell presents: Cloud Crash at Science and Industry Museum, Castlefield 20 October 2016 — 3 February 2017 Entrance is free

This unusual exhibition takes place across the Museum of Science and Industry site, with three special installations by internationally acclaimed Paris-based artists HeHe (Helen Evans and Heiko Hansen) highlighting society’s role in environmental destabilization. One, titled Airbag, establishes an synthetic microclimate, Burnout constitutes a manufactured airspace, and perhaps most magical-sounding is the creation of a sky of artificially engineered clouds for Diamonds In The Sky.
