THE ANIMAL HUMMINGBIRD
ExhIbited at THE OTHERS ART FAIR 2021 Turin, Italy
These works were inspired by a paper of the same name written by ecologist and bio-artist Felipe Shibuya, in which he explores the mysterious being that is the Hummingbird - '...evolution allows the hummingbird to see a spectrum inaccessible to us, the ultraviolet. With this advantage, these birds can see a world invisible to humans which gives us the limitation of seeing the true colours that matter to hummingbirds. Evolution is inevitable, and we, as biological beings, are subject to it.'
