Clouds Edged With Intolerable Radiancy

I was nicely surprised to find Lauren Hall's old installation Clouds Edged With Intolerable Radiancy at ESP (Erin Stump Projects) this past weekend.  I remember seeing it four years ago at YYZ.  It still looks stunning.

Hall at ESP, Toronto:

Thank you, ESP.  Good luck on your new gallery location.
