BIRD TRAIL

[ Previous / Next ]



This is a relatively concrete work, with the 'wings' clearly visible as scratches portruding from the side of one of the central bruises. The other bruises that extend from it are shaped so as to give a sense of direction and placement; the bird's beak is to the left, and is small and covered by what seems to be its body, thus implying its movement is away from the viewer. Meanwhile, the tail - or trail - to the right also contributes to that impression, seeming to be left behind.
