Above the Clouds
Kevin McCarter
About this work:
Clouds present such a different picture when viewed from above. From an airplane window they appear as a vast landscape of white shapes arranged in varied but coherent patterns. Bright from the sunlight and sculpted by their shadows, they rest at the base of an unending blue skyscape. Opening to imagination, they invite one to put everyday thoughts on pause, to linger in their world for a while, to explore their contours and configurations. There's so much that is intriguing to look at. One can even begin to hear music there....
