The Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya is known for her fog sculptures and environments. Her latest project is Veil, a site-specific installation for The Glass House, the iconic building that was designed by the American architect Philip Johnson. As part of our coverage of this project, we recorded a conversation between Fujiko Nakaya and the curator and collections manager of the Glass House, Irene Shum Allen. In this video, Fujiko Nakaya talks about how she experienced the opening of her exhibition Veil at The Glass House; her transformation from drawing to video to fog artist, and why she uses fog as artistic medium; the technical challenges of creating artifial fog and early experiments with it; the collaboration with cloud physicist Tom Mee; why she prefers pure water fog over chemical fog; her relationship with legendary artist collaborative E.A.T. Experiments in Art and Technology; her friendship with Robert Rauschenberg; how she experienced the Glass House and the dynamics of the air around it, and how she developed Veil for Philip Johnson's iconic structure.
