SOUND AS ORACLE 
This performance work is the culmination of the project THE LANGUAGE OF BIRDS that aimed to reveal the hidden magical language of birds via translating their sound language into visual sculptures. Three SYRINX SCULPTURES (that were channelled from the sound of gynandromorphic birds) create a ritualistic space from where a reading of philosophical poetry from the collection AND EIGHT BLACK HORSES RODE BELOW MY WINDOW takes place. Having been bought to fruition via the song of the bird, the sculptures could be considered to be imbued with the wisdom of nature. The poems heard here are 3ZW3XY - an exploration of alternative realities via the thought of co-scripting with bird genetics and RING THE NEW BELL - a poetic meditation on the gendering of the muse and the oracle in greek mythology.
