NoDa Cloud Wall Art Installation Completed By Artist Elizabeth Palmisano
THE LATEST:
The Noda Cloudwall has been completed. Artist Elizabeth Palmisano celebrated the completion of the Cloudwall with an Artwalk, surrounded by a few supporters who witnessed her progression of this large project.
The over 23,000 sq ft, multi-dimensional, sculptural mural has transformed the parking deck and surrounding buildings on NoDa 36th. Light rail riders coming into the city will now be greeted by Palmisano’s cloudscapes floating alongside the 36th Street station.
The gathering of handwritten wishes inscribed on the back of the fabricated metal clouds add an extra layer of culture community as these wishes come from local residents in the area.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.– Elizabeth Palmisano’s Cloud Wall art piece is in the final stages and almost complete.
Charlotte’s largest community-responsive art installation spans an entire NoDa parking garage at the Link apartments right at the 36th street station.
Palmisano hosted a series of opportunities for community members to share their wishes with her- for happiness, health, love… the list goes on. What she found was people sharing some of the same wishes.
“People will be able to come and find their wish and be like.. that’s my wish! I think sometimes when our desires feel really far away.. it can feel painful. And I think sometimes just knowing you’re not alone can be really comforting” Palmisano said.
The effort is coming to life with the help of more than a dozen other artists and the apartment development team, Grubb Properties. It is expected to be finished in the Fall of 2023.
