Like the atmospheric transformation of a cloud into rain,
some works of art have the potential to change their form and meaning.
Borrowing its title from the proverb, a promise is a cloud, fulfillment
is rain, this exhibition explores the idea of potentiality, whether
drawing out a relationship between artworks and actions, or, focusing on
the interaction between the objects and the architecture of MetroTech
Center. In both their static and evolving states, the artworks installed
throughout the Commons incorporate a capacity for transformationeither
in their form, process, or visual language.
