The concept of a cloud has taken on new meaning in modern society; a meaning that is explored in the In The Cloud group art exhibit. Taking place at the Ethan Cohen Fine Arts in New York City, it converges the idea of clouds as magical forms in the sky with the digital cloud people use to to store the most important (and not so important) data on their personal tech.
Featuring the work of 22 artists, the In The Cloud exhibit was curated by Alexandra Loulias. Cool Hunting writes, "Paintings, sculptures, plants and manipulated canvases mingle amidst the glow of monitors, neon texts, and a cloud machine — forming a nebula of super-charged works." The results are thoroughly thought-provoking.
