Bird #9

This bird was created as part of the installation Birds, Fire, Chairs created on a residency with KTSM in Istanbul in 2022. In this installation resonating with ecofeminist concerns, the birds represent anger at the patriarchal systems that oppress women and consume the planet. Their act of flying is the impulse to break away from the suffocation. They symbolise a new potential, a new narrative, the feminist utopia we need to spark hope.

The bird is signed at the base and will be delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
