Interactive Installations - Cloud Gate (Chicago, USA)


Cloud Gate is a 66 feet long by 33 feet high bean shaped sculpture located at Millennium Park in Chicago, USA. 

Its polished surface made to resemble mercury gives people a highly reflective surface that distorts the surrounding skyline and giving a juxtaposition of the what is behind and in front of the observer. 


Being one the side of a static installation, people are still drawn to interact with the piece as it is a great photo opportunity for locals and tourists alike.
