A Bridled White-Eye nest from Agrihan, Northern Mariana Island made from found materials from Agrihan and feathers from a cygnet found dead on the shore of Paljassaare, Estonia on the 18th of March 2021 and other objects
A Bridled White-Eye nest from Agrihan, Northern Mariana Island made from found materials from Agrihan and feathers from a cygnet found dead on the shore of Paljassaare, Estonia on the 18th of March 2021 and other objects consists of a vast network of things other than what it was intended to be. This project has become a setting of multiple stories, all with the same aim; memorialising a cygnet I found in March 2021 in Paljassaare, and creating a trajectory of continuance for this bird through multiple means of narrative production connecting the bird to other birds and geographies. Each means of approaching a different aspect of the narrative is referred to as a scene. There are three scenes; ‘a walk is taken’, ‘a map is made’ and ‘[a] nest(s) assembled’ that contribute to the production of the meta-narrative that is experienced as a multimedia installation.
Collected recollections of can also be listen to at the site where the cygnet was found in Paljassaare.
