Nestling Nestling
Nestling Nestling presents the collection of birds’ nests on the wall like a page of music, each nest a note on a stave of electrical wiring. Aluminium "sound-nests" cradle speakers. A soft musical conversation between nests, via multiple sound channels, becomes agitated when the viewer comes close.
Found native birds’ nests, soundtrack Nestling Nestling, 5 channel sound system, movement sensors, lighting and wiring, aluminium. Size: 6m x 2.5m x 30cm
The exhibition Ossature, 2004, included the two installation works Bonetown and Nestling Nestling.
