Bird Whistle
Magical, beautiful hum of a tropical bird echoes throughout the gallery building. As the viewer nears the installation piece it reveals the source of sound - a clumsy mechanical object. The cumbersome process the audience is exposed to through the bird's hum simulates how accustomed we have become to blocking background sound, and points out the vast amount of energy we have to invest in listening to a bird's hum -the most natural, basic experience.
