'Cloud' by Ron English is a curious take on street art that heads to the skies for maximum visibility and impact. English commandeered (or hired) a plane to write the word 'Cloud' five times in the NYC sky on September 29. At first, the repetitive phrase was silly and a bit cheeky, but as the skywriting faded into actual clouds, the genius idea behind this project was exposed.
