BIRDS IN SPACE
ink print on archival paper, 115 x 155 cm, 2024
Series of seven. Ed. 5 plus 1 AP
For a bird to fly in outer space, it would have to hold its breath. It would have to fight Earth's gravity. It would have to endure a temperature of -270°C. It would have to bathe in radiation, unprotected by Earth's magnetic field. It would have to live without water and food.
It would never be able to come back, because it would burn in the atmosphere.
It would have to really want to be free.
