A bamboo cane hung upside down is the sign traversed by a varying number of gold-plated terracotta birds anchored with bands. The wingless birds roughly resemble ‘calls’, but are incapable of making sounds of any kind. A parable of man's existential state, the animals ‘constrained’ in their arrangement live only by the reflection of light that will vary their presence according to the intensity of the light source. Bamboo cane, gold-plated terracotta birds, variable number, max. 36 pieces, original work.
