This exhibition presents 3 artists who contemplate the meaning and transformative nature of clouds. The earth’s unique character as the water planet has made life possible, and yet clouds are intangible but essential. As our weather changes we are keenly affected by cloud formations and forces….we daily read the clouds, and imagine various configurations, and we use euphemisms of clouds for our moods and dreams. These artists use drawing, woodblock printing, and photo-polymer intaglio plates to craft their efforts to capture nature’s ephemeral clouds, and the vast power within.
