Animal Skulls and Other Figures
Ensemble
“On a long walk around the area of my studio I found a dead, desiccated crow. I walked on, and then after a while turned back. Along the way I found a plastic sack. When I returned to the crow I cut off the head and put it in the sack, then took it to my studio. I don’t want to go back to working with animal skulls because the only place for such things in Europe is exotic anthropology. Still, it is unusual to find a dead crow in the city.” [full text here]
