This 50-color, three-level installation integrates large-scale artwork with rich narrative imagery drawn from Music City’s unique culture and legacy, while orienting movement through pattern, color, and narrative. Across Country weaves themes of aviation, music, and history, and even reimagines the terminal’s popular former carpet pattern. Better Home Awaiting references the gospel hymn “Will the Circle Be Unbroken,” and integrates vinyl records and the Ryman Auditorium. Our Radiant City abstracts Nashville’s skyline as a focal centerpiece at Concourse D.
