Bowerbird Hut


This piece was created to show how nature and the animal instincts we have never die. Bowerbirds are birds that create an artist environment around their mating hut in order to attract a mate. In the past I have used the Bowerbird's idea of collecting colorful objects in my work to show how similar humans and animals really are.

Through this project I created a natural Bowerbird hut out of sticks, colorful flowers and ribbons. I proceeded to burn the hut to emphasize that although we can destroy and ignore our natural instinct and environment, they will always sprout up again in one form or another, never truly dying.
