Living on the wind, a world on the wing, Is taken from Scott Weidensaul's book of the same name on global bird migration. In it he describes not only with a new perspective the mysteries and wonders of this event, but also the great influence of the changing climate on it. Despite the fact that this book has sharpened my view of this phenomenon, unlike Weidensaul I did not start in this expo from the observed behavior and actions of bird migration but from what the bird perceives.
Imagining what a bird observes in the air, among the foliage and flying over the ground formed the basis for the series of works that will be on view here. Earlier texts about the work brought up Robert Walser 's tremendously keen observational mind, in which detail is mesmerized. A swaying bush in the wind, the striking hues in a canopy of leaves. Birds too must have that keen observational mind to move somewhere between two worlds, namely the earth's surface and the atmosphere.
Starting from the bird's point of view offered me an opportunity to try to bring into focus to some extent that which escapes the human eye and remains hidden from the viewer as a result. Concepts such as distant, close, correlation, between two worlds, quantum entanglement and the attentive study of a fresco in the chapter house at the Abbey of Fontevraud during a residency form the basis for the visual research that came about as a result.
