Sluice (2009) by Kate MccGwire
Bits of bones and pigeon feathers may be garbage to you and me, but not to artist Kate MccGwire. The London-based artist used thousands of discarded pigeon feathers to create amazing works of art.
In this interview with Kate, Don’t Panic Magazine asks: why pigeon feathers?
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.
