Presenting “Cloud Lilies,” a 2023 art installation by Nova Jiang, beautifully brought to life by Pink Sparrow. A stunning display of fiberglass, steel, and polyurethane paint, this piece measures an impressive 23’ x 28’ x 20’.
Positioned at The Ella B. Scarborough Community Resource Center in Charlotte, NC, Cloud Lilies is more than just an art piece. The installation draws its inspiration from the bulb of the Carolina Lily and the natural process of groundwater absorption and transpiration in plants. The seats are modeled after lily bulbs, sheltered by inverted forms that mimic clouds. At its core, the lily bulb symbolizes potential growth and acknowledges the unseen struggles of individuals.
