Two movements back up from both sides and meet in a shared choreography. In the black and white, the bird's form dissolves and becomes a vast landscape. The wing becomes a mountain ridge and the tail feathers a valley of snow and shadow. An androgynous transformation where creature and expanse merge. Do you see the magpie or do you see space? / Without frame or passe-partout.
