´Dead birds do tell tales´
When I was 6, I had a baby bird named Fellini, a little budgie bird. I got him for my birthday. He was so cute, all white. He ate from my hand. One day I got the idea to teach my pippin how to fly. I threw him up in the air like I had seen others do - on TV. It resulted in him becoming crippled and then dying.
I still haven't forgiven myself.
I burried him in our garden.

Memory and Identity
I use my own story to reflect on a larger set of issues in a metaphorical language. I really enjoy the evolving process of work which can start from a vague idea which then develops into a universe all its own. Nothing can be more frustrating and giving at the same time as that. What excites me the most is when an emotional trigger connects unexpectedly with a visual memory.
