I canceled the trip to NY because of storm.

Storm is a weather condition. It exists in nature and It could destroy things. 

It also reminds us why we do need Architecture. 

From wikipedia's definition, it affects surface. 

The nature's surface.

You can see the rain patterns on the fields after raining.

You can see sand dune on the desert.

You can see the wave patterns on the beach.

​

How to record  storm with my surface?

Clay is the best medium.

These paintings are made by nature, made by storm, made by rain and made by wind.

The results are the interactions between storm and canvas with the force of nature.

They are the journal of a storm.

What is storm? From Wikipedia.

"A storm is any disturbed state of an environment or in an astronomical body's atmosphere especially affecting its surface, and strongly implying severe weather. It may be marked by significant disruptions to normal conditions such as strong wind, tornadoes, hail, thunder and lightning (a thunderstorm), heavy precipitation (snowstorm, rainstorm), heavy freezing rain (ice storm), strong winds (tropical cyclone, windstorm), or wind transporting some substance through the atmosphere as in a dust storm, blizzard, sandstorm, etc. Storms have the potential to harm lives and property via storm surge, heavy rain or snow causing flooding or road impassibility, lightning, wildfires, and vertical wind shear. Systems with significant rainfall and duration help alleviate drought in places they move through. Heavy snowfall can allow special recreational activities to take place which would not be possible otherwise, such as skiing and snowmobiling."
