Paint with All the Colors of the Wind


Occurred on September 1, 2018 / Dallas, Texas, USA

Info from Licensor: "This is an inside video perspective of a one-of-a-kind aerial artist concept called Captured Sky. Professional skydiver, Michelle Nirumandrad, takes paints and canvases up during freefall skydives releasing the paints into the air and allowing the winds of the sky to paint the canvas. She crafts in this manner in an effort to create a tangible from an intangible, to claim a souvenir from above, a piece of the heavens, Captured Sky. The artwork is crafted entirely above ground either in freefall or under canopy combining gestural abstraction with the winds of flight to create impressions of the sky, her fingerpaintings if you will. In this video, you can see the freefall portion of the process as Nirumandrad exits a twin otter at 13,500ft and paints with the winds until approximately 5,000ft when she deploys her canopy."
