Richmond Airport’s New Sculpture Debuts | Richmond News

Richmond International Airport just debuted its first-ever public art installation: a 24-foot-tall sculpture titled “Travel Companions,” featuring a dogwood tree and three hummingbirds named after local Richmond icons—including one honoring Michael Vick. Designed by artist Matthew Mazzotta, the piece blends the city’s identity with the airport’s modernization push, which includes nearly $800 million in upgrades since 2023. Located between parking garages and funded through public art grants, this striking centerpiece aims to welcome travelers while reflecting Richmond’s vibrant culture—and it’s just the latest in Mazzotta’s growing portfolio of airport installations.
