How Rockefeller Bloomed

A public art installation transforming downtown Cleveland's historic Rockefeller Building through collage, history, and florals.

About the Project

How Rockefeller Bloomed is a site-specific public artwork commissioned by Destination Cleveland for the historic Rockefeller Building in downtown Cleveland. Spanning multiple façades, the installation combines archival photographs, hand-built digital collage, and fields of forget-me-nots to tell a story of growth, innovation, and transformation.

Drawing from Cleveland's industrial history and the legacy of the Rockefeller family, the work reimagines familiar landmarks through a contemporary lens, inviting viewers to reflect on the city's past while envisioning its future.
