Language of the Birds

Language of the Birds is a flock of twenty-three sculpted, illuminated books, which appear to have just taken flight from the plaza like pigeons scared up by a passer-by. Appearing to be in motion, the books have flown open creating various wing positions with the forms of the pages and bindings. The entire artwork appears to be in motion with each book holding its position as a bird does in a flock.

I never knew those "books" lit up at night! Nice take on a very uniquet view of this corner. I also love the deliberate distortion from your wide angle lens. Very nice!
