Sensación de Vuelo

Sensación de Vuelo

by Leonardo Nierman

Location: Terminal 2 lawn, between domestic and international arrivals

The 10-foot tall sculpture, (which translated from Spanish means “Flying Sensation”), is constructed of intertwined steel ribbons that point to the sky and reflect the air and land above and below where visitors stand. The reflective steel may remind visitors of one of St. Louis’ most iconic images, the St. Louis Arch. Sensación de Vuelo was a gift by the Artist to St. Louis on behalf of the people of Mexico.
