Mural

 3600 Presidential Blvd., Austin, TX, 78719

Austin artist James Talbot, has recently finished this public art piece, “Transition,” on the two pedestrian bridges which link the ABIA airport terminal to the close-in parking garage. The work consists of large sun and earth mosaics on each end of the bridges and smaller confetti-like pieces symbolizing air, earth, fire and water, linked by a jagged line embedded with glass. The work is intended to “give a festive, celebratory send-off to those embarking on a journey” and make the traveler aware of the phases of arrival and departure.
