MFAH Staff Art Show - 1/30/25

I’m so proud to have my piece featured in the MFAH Biennial Staff Art Show 2025! The exhibition is taking place in the Millenium Gallery in the Lower Level of Beck Building at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

Come check out all the incredible artwork submitted by talented MFAH employees. There are over 600 employees and I’m honored to be selected in the exhibition. Exhibition closes on 2/9/25.

This exhibiting piece is very significant to me on so many levels. It was taken upon my arrival at the airport in El Salvador. The passengers were awaiting at the baggage claim for their families and belongings. The silhouettes of the foreground symbolize the desire to go home, but what is home? Is it a geography? Is it a state of mind?

This specific photograph was the first piece of artwork I exhibited and sold on the same night. That experience taught me that my artwork is valued. With the support from that first show, I was empowered to own the title of ARTIST. Let me know if you visit my piece! Tag me @Yeirybird
