Artwork Description

Bird 17 continues my exploration of layered form, but here the composition feels more upright and self-contained. The larger silhouette acts almost like a shelter, holding the smaller figures within it. Each shape sits firmly inside the next, creating a sense of quiet structure rather than movement.
