2011: Ink drawing and print, coarse scrim, wool, rugs, pillows

The drawing can be enjoyed while sitting in a cloud-like pod made of wool stitched onto coarse scrim. It can accommodate 2-3 people at once.

The ink drawing, created using potato-printing, is based on a memory when I walked my dog at the end of autumn in the nearby wood, where the bare trees were covered by an amazing number of crows sitting on the top of the branches above us. The extraordinary experience was that whenever I looked up, they rose to fly because they noticed the light spot of my face. When I turned my face away from the sky they settled back. I played with this until my dog got bored and dragged me with him.
