1. The bird in this photograph is laying dead on the sidewalk amongst a dirty newspaper and trash. I want to create an alternative burial process for the bird that seeks to respect it's life and significance in the world. I am curious about creating a digital gif that would clean up the surrounding area where the bird lays and cover it with flowers instead of trash. By doing so, I'll create a digital space that recognizes the birds dignity and where it can lay forever at rest in beauty.
2. My best friend runs an account called onlydeadbirds on instagram where she photographs...only dead birds. Each photo is framed the same way and taken from a "birds eye" perspective. It was her artistic archive of dead birds that inspired me to take this photo. The repetitive nature of her account is pattern like. I am intrigued by the idea of creating a rapid gif of the different dead birds. The variation of shape and color will make the gif interesting to watch.
