Tampa International Airport's 21-foot-tall pink flamingo sculpture has officially been declared a winner of the CODAWorx Awards, a competition that annually chooses the most successful integrations of commissioned art pieces and public spaces. Sculpted out of resin and fiberglass by artist Matthew Mazzotta and formally titled "HOME," the flamingo is more affectionately known by its nickname "Phoebe." Phoebe was completed in 2022 and had just celebrated her first birthday before taking home two prizes: a jury award in the Transportation category and one of two People's Choice awards. A panel of 18 jurors, made up of influential people in art and design, reviewed and scored nearly 100 finalists before choosing winners in various distinctive categories. Each of the categories is based on what type of industry the works of art are displayed in. "HOME" was the winner for Transportation being displayed at an airport. Other categories include "Hospitality," "Liturgical" and "Residential."
