Fly By

The installation Fly By depicts crows in flight.  The birds have been screen-printed onto hundreds of small glass tiles, the tiles kiln-fired, wired together and hung in strands from the ceiling.  The crows are all together. Their numbers are strong – they are part of a group, one which provides individuals with comfort and support.  It’s hard it know if the flock is coming together, or breaking apart, but no matter, each individual can find a sense of community.  In exhibition, Fly By may be varied in size and shape, just as our own support bases, both within a community and inside ourselves, can vary from day to day.
