Diane Drubay One Cloud - Observation 4 2023 one channel full HD color video, 33 seconds, no sound MP4 1080x1080

'One Cloud: A Vanishing Horizon' is a series of one-channel full HD color video that delves into the complex relationship between climate change and clouds. This 33-second micro-video uses a cumulus cloud's transformation through sunset hues as a metaphor for our fragile climate. This piece employs the opponent-process theory of color vision to create a lasting visual imprint, culminating in the introduction of the cumulus cloud. Clouds act as both thermal blankets and sunlight reflectors, contributing to the warming and cooling of our planet. Cumulus clouds, with their reflective properties, play a vital role in cooling our planet. Echoing Sandrine Bony's research and EUREC4A project findings, the series provokes reflection on our role in the changing climate narrative and our response to these vanishing horizons.
