What a fool a man must be to believe in his own dreams. The greatest fool I have ever seen! The genius is a fool.
Once in a while, an extraordinary cloud formation appears. It morphs from a cumulus, full of inner fights and anger, through a confused and distracted altocumulus, to the greatest of them all: Cirrus. Cirrus is the highest cloud in the sky, the one with the highest perspective.
Only when all these clouds align, one above the other, the Cirrus Clown appears. But don’t get it twisted, he is neither a clown nor a fool. Perhaps only to the others. Cirrus depicts a human heart that floats in dreams and visions so passionately that he becomes a fool and a genius. This line is very thin and depends entirely on perception, authenticity, self-acceptance and the lightness of being. Cirrus Clown is having fun. He learns, grows, and most importantly exists within his own unique insanity of reality.
