Celeste Boursier-Mougenot



While visiting Arad at the Barbican we also popped into see Celeste Boursier-Mougenot's installation, an aviary with musical instruments. When the birds land on an instruments it plays, it is bizarre, hilarious and entrancing. Two finches landed on me and attacked my shoe laces for nesting material.

Watch a video of the birds below:

I heard an interview with Celeste after visiting, and when asked what his next project might be he answered 'fish'. I can't wait!
