Mudlark
by Kristin Cassidy
Location: Pre-Security, Terminal 1, Baggage Claim level
Each work highlights a unique collection of artifacts discovered along the bank of the Mississippi River in St. Louis. Decades of exposure to the elements have sculpted their forms. The aggregation of rust and erosion acts as a record of time. Each object within a collection started out the same way, or for the same purpose, and ended up in the same place, but reflect very different experiences. They have been re-presented without context to highlight the nuances of their history. Each object has been given a stage to tell its story, which otherwise would be washed away by time.
