The "smooth" texture of anish kapoor’s sculpture cloud gate is appealing for viewers to touch.
Cloud Gate was the primary public sculpture of Indian-born and London-based artist Anish Kapoor. His work was chosen out of two recommendations that were submitted in 1999 for a masterpiece form in the new, present day Millennium Park, which was planned to open in 2000.
Bended at each point on its surface, Cloud Gate resembles a unimaginable question, excessively smooth, making it impossible to be man-made and excessively capricious, making it impossible to originate from nature. It scarcely contacts the ground, making a hallucination of uncanny delicacy. The confuse between its outside and inside—the bending external surface apparently maintained by surface strain; within, obviously crumbling into a void—additionally makes a dumbfounding impact, setting interior attachment against a vacuum.
The polished, highly reflective texture of Anish Kapoor's sculpture "Cloud Gate" is appealing for viewers to touch, made of 168 polished stainless steel plates, which are seemed together invisibly, the structure sits as the centrepiece of AT&T Plaza at Millenium Park in Chicago, Illinois, floating like a reflective cloud mirror.
