On the occasion of the Climate Change Conference @cop25_madrid from December 2 to 13, 2019, artists explore the impact of climate change. Ten years ago, in 2009, Darya von Berner created in Madrid “Universal Cloud Flag” a white flag of minute water drops, like the clouds that nourish and sustain life. Shortly after she carried out this idea that she patented, manufactured, and installed it in front of The Peace Palace in The Hague in 2012. The cloud flag was emitted from the top of a steel mast, using fog pressure to spray water in suspension into the atmosphere.

Universal Cloud Flag, 2012 Darya von Berner⁣

In January 2012, the artist Darya von Berner presented her most recent work Universal Cloud Flag.⁣
The piece was shown at the Peace Palace in The Hague (Netherlands) @peacepalace.nl⁣
, which houses among others, the International Court of Justice and the Permanent Court of Arbitration.⁣

The flag consists of a real cloud, which is released from the top of a flagpole.⁣
The cloud is created with the help of a new nebulization technology, which employs high pressure to pulverise water into micro-particles, that can float in the air. The flagpole also emits light to enhance the visibility of the water particles.⁣

Curator: Tom van Vliet ⁣
