 Matthew Mazzotta Art,

Known for stalking front lawns in plastic form as much as they wade through the shallows of Everglades National Park, Biscayne Bay, or the Keys, pink flamingos are practically synonymous with Florida. Around the turn of the 20th century, however, native populations were decimated due to overhunting. Although residents later began to foster captive colonies, of the estimated 260,000 to 330,000 mature birds worldwide, Florida is thought to accommodate only about one percent of them.

For the artist, the iconic avian and the importance of sharing space with wildlife inspired a monumental, immersive installation at Tampa International Airport.

I just found out that the city of Seattle erected a 17 foot Steller's Jay statue, created by Matthew Mazzotta, at Highland Park on my birthday last year. It's one of my favorite birds!!! What a lovely gift, indeed. Thank you, City of Seattle!! 💙🖤💙🐦 I found a picture of a statue of a giant flamingo that he created that is on display at the central terminal of the Tampa International Airport. Very cool, Mr. Mazzotta!! 🩷🩷🦩

Massive Flamingo Installation Lands at Florida Airport

Since late 2022, an enormous flamingo has taken up residence at the Tampa International Airport. Artist Matthew Mazzotta created the giant flamingo as a tribute to Florida's most recognizable bird and to the comings and goings of the travelers who pass through the airport. Titled HOME, the oversize installation has become a favorite of travelers, whether it's adults taking selfies or children playing on its legs.
