Whimsical Balloon Installations

The William Forsythe 'Scattered Crowd' Exhibit is Breathtaking

One of the most beautiful installations to date, the 'Scattered Crowd' exhibit by William Forsythe captures the beauty of thousands of white balloons in extravagant settings. The exhibit is currently at the Bockenheimer Depot in Frankfurt, Germany. The installation inhibits the beauty of space and the emptiness of human emotion. The use of space from the suspending balloon leaves room for expressionism and beautiful emotion.

William Forsythe curated the installation to match the relationship between humans and emptiness. The balloons match the context of human emotion filling up the space which is related to the artist's idea of emptiness. The exhibit is a stunning feature using normal household products to resemble a tragically beautiful version of real life and art.
