Perch Here Between Flights

Perch Here Between Flights

by Solomon Thurman

Exhibition Dates: November 2018 through April 2019

Location: Terminal 2, Post-Security, near gate E10

We all seek refuge and rest when we travel. St. Louis artist Solomon Thurman expands on that theme extending beyond airport travelers to other high-flyers: birds. Perch Here Between Flights was a series of 14 acrylic paintings of bird houses and birds in flight and is curated by Patricia Smith Thurman, Solomon’s wife. The paintings were inspired by a trip to Mobile, Alabama where Solomon visited an estate with more than 300 birdhouses on the property.
