My friend Joanne’s flight was delayed so she was getting a bite to eat and then walking around Terminal A-East in the Philadelphia Airport, waiting for her flight to be called. Although she was eager to get to her destination, the delay gave her time to photograph all these colorful artworks. Creating a guest blog today was not her plan, it just happened. There was a lot of yarn!
IT’S A WRAP 2 is in Terminal A-East
Ticketed Passengers
“This exhibition features work by Philadelphia area artists(listed below) who were invited to create unique architectural interventions within the Airport terminal. Using yarn, fabric, felt, found objects, tape, paint, wheat paste, and wood, the artists applied their work to the ceiling tiles, columns, rockers, walls, walkway, and windows. They have visually transformed this location into an immersive and experiential art-filled passageway.”

Have a wonderful holiday . Thank you Joanne. Joanne’s most recent guest blog was the one of the bronze sculptures in Halifax Nova Scotia – The Volunteers.
Those are beautiful! And the rocking chairs look comfy.
It very much resembles how I picture your home Ruth. Dc
Beautiful
What a lovely unexpected find!
What fun!
Just beautiful! Nice to have something to enjoy while waiting for a flight.
What an incredibly fun and creative project. I just love this. All that color. All those patterns. These are sure to make travelers smile. Love this public art.
What a lovely find, Ruth!
So fun! I like how she was able to take a “negative” situation and find the joy within it.
