BIRD MIRROR
2025
Hung from the ceiling for optimal flying illusion the bird is made of three waterjet cut parts. The shape of the breast is based on a human face so it’s connected to human proportion, the wings are a copy of the body but tilted and without the head and tail. I wanted the bird to feel as elemental as possible, like the sculptures of Brancusi or Noguchi. Not claiming my shape comes anywhere near their skill level, but hey I tried.
And yes, the wings move.
