30 Awesome Works of Air, Sky and Wind Art

By Ecoist in Art & Design, Nature & Ecosystems, Science & Research

The sky occupies an ambiguous position in our everyday cosmologies. On the one hand, it is the window to everything beyond our grounded lives. On the other hand, it is a barrier of sorts – something we can only travel through inside the bellies of metal beasts. Air, wind and sky artists can challenge our preconceptions and broaden our (literal) horizons by problematizing the simplistic duality of Earth and Sky.

This gallery collects not only works of air, wind and sky related art by various artists but also features some of the most spectacular places to interact with the elements above us – from the sun, moon and the rest celestial space above to powerful natural phenomena right here on the surface of the planet.
