Occupy The Cloud
2013
Occupy the Cloud, an installation for Open Heart Surgery, The Moving Museum, 180 Strand, October 13 - December 13 2013.
Occupy the Cloud is an installation of three banners on the facade of 180 Strand, a brutalist office block on a main road in central London. The banners are made of pixelated, virtual skies taken from architectural renderings, like those which adorn nearby building sites. They feature three symbols: the lightning bolt through a circle of the international squatters’ movement; the @-symbol used to denote digital location or direction (and acquired in 2010 by MoMA); and the Cloud symbol, which has come to stand for the vast and remote data storage and processing capabilities of corporations and governments.
