THE CLOUD

You’ll find this interactive piece created by award-winning New York artist Donald Lipski at the center of the Schuster Avenue roundabout on the southern edge of campus. Three cloud shaped panels are covered by thousands of small, multicolored steel flaps that sway in the wind. Its appearance changes depending on the time of day, the weather and your viewpoint. It pays homage to ��������Ƶ’s Bhutanese architecture; Bhutan is called the Kingdom in the Clouds.
