that`s a great idea to built sculptures with feathers!
wow it looks amazing, so real...
When i saw it I felt like there is a monster coming out from all those places.
It's great idea and so inventive!
Thanks for sharing it
yeah, she is a great artist!
Thanks for comments.
where do all the feathers come from, detached from their owners so we could turn their feathers into neat-o art/entertainment?
Hi Jana, the feathers are not detached from the birds!
In an interview kate mccgwire said:
"I am currently using pigeon feathers as they come from a bird that is generally reviled - regarded as vermin and referred to as ‘rats with wings’. I started to collect pigeon feathers that moulted from the birds in a shed next to my studio – I realised that they were actually very beautiful"
