Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) has unveiled a new mural titled "Everyday Transcendence" by artist Allison Kunath in Terminal 4. This artwork is part of LAX's initiative to provide travelers with a memorable experience as they arrive in Los Angeles.

Sarah Cifarelli, Director of LAX’s Art Program, described the purpose of the murals: “LAX’s murals have been curated to welcome passengers from around the world to Los Angeles and create a memorable ‘you are here’ moment." She added that "Everyday Transcendence offers a distinct new voice to this initiative."

The mural measures 226 feet wide by 16 feet tall and covers three connecting walls above a concessions area. Its design includes three sunburst patterns created with over 60 colors, transitioning from cool blues on one side to warm hues on the other. The central wall features a full spectrum of colors.

Kunath's work aims to reflect movement and connectivity within the busy airport environment. Her use of familiar patterns and symbols explores human connections and emotions, offering travelers a moment for reflection. The sunburst patterns serve as metaphorical portals inviting passengers to pause and connect with their surroundings.

The mural was installed by a team led by Kunath and overseen by LAX Arts Manager Tim McGowan over two weeks. Kunath expressed her intentions for the piece: “It was an honor to collaborate with the LAX Art Program to bring this artwork to life," she said. "Inspired by the small but arresting moments that give life its texture and beauty, my hope is that viewers are momentarily transported to a place of gratitude and reflection as they pass through the space."

Known for her geometric murals and watercolor paintings, Kunath's art often explores human emotions and psychology, drawing from personal experiences while resonating universally.

This mural is part of Terminal 4 renovations aimed at enhancing LAX's mission to create a welcoming environment. It is currently on view for ticketed passengers. More information about the mural can be found at flylax.com/art-program.
