Birds to the Parliament



'Birds to the Parliament' is the end result of the collaborative work done by Louise Atkinson and me, and presented at the final exhibition.

It uses my Israeli political satire as a starting point to explore social identity. The triptych incorporates cultural symbols from history and language to discuss the nature of democracy and class, as it relates to different regions.

We also took insparation from "Bird Parliament", by Farid ud-Din Attar, tr. by Edward FitzGerald, [1889],
I care not, I, to wait on Kings, Whose crowns are but the Shadow of my Wings!

Louise Atkinson and Zeev Parush
