Up, down, all around, clouds invade the streets of Venice. Caught shimmering and rippling in the canals, their forms are impossible to avoid, and their reflections take on their own identities thanks to the ever-changing light of the city. Cattaneo captures this double vision through twinning the materials of glass and marble, a flat sheet of yellow water-textured glass balanced upon the curves of a cloud carved from Rosa Egizio Marble.
