Falling Weather
Summary
Falling Weather is a 2010 giclee print by Kai & Sunny on 100% cotton Somerset Enhanced paper, produced in an edition of 3. The unframed sheet measures 88 by 126.5 cm, framed in black-stained oak at 103 by 142 cm, translating atmospheric movement into the duo's dense, cascading linework.
Why It Matters
The title points to Kai & Sunny's enduring interest in weather, atmosphere, and natural forces rendered as abstract line fields. An edition of only 3 makes this large-format giclee one of the scarcest expressions of that theme in their catalogue.
Collector Perspective
Three impressions total place Falling Weather firmly in the collector's rarity bracket. Its substantial scale, archival Somerset paper, and oak studio framing make it a considered acquisition for those drawn to the nature-and-atmosphere strand of the duo's work.
Historical Context
Produced in 2010, Falling Weather reflects Kai & Sunny's practice of abstracting natural phenomena, from wind to weather, into flowing linear compositions. The large-format giclee medium allowed them to sustain fine detail across an imposing sheet.
