Festival visitors to Splendour in the Grass had the unique opportunity to dance in the sky on a gigantic cloud, adorned in neon projections of mist and liquid elements!

Illuminart’s Craig Laurendet and Justin Morrissey provided technical support, equipment and surreal animation to support Andy Forbes’ heavenly project.

Using smoke and foam machines, video projection and a giant bridge structure decorated with hand painted clouds, Andy created an immersive experience that reminds us of our intense relationship with nature.

Andy Forbes is a post punk multidisciplinary artist who creates immersive experiences for festivals. Andy specializes in large scale experimental site-specific interventions; his installations are satirical, playful and provocative. Find Andy on Instagram: @andyforbesworld
