Note: The bird is a recurring subject in the artist's bestiary. True to his approach, Xavier Veilhan merges the attributes of several songbirds to create a universal silhouette. The work explores the power of our collective imagination, where the simple word "bird" is enough to define and contain force in space. The animal undergoes a digital and geometric simplification.
