Murmur

Murmurations of birds have fascinated me, and I wanted to capture the thrill that I get when I see them. The main inspiration for this piece was an experience I had at a marsh in New Mexico during a residency. I was able to capture the birds on video. Every time that video plays I am reminded of the joy I felt on that day. This work now does the same.
