Installation view of new work by the artist Birds are Nice.
Kali and the Redemption song, 2011
mixed media + sound loop
This work is about a juvenile Humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae). The whale is an offering to the Hindu goddess Kali-redeemer of the earth in an attempt to save the species, but also used as a metaphor for people to heal themselves by listening to the wisdom of the whale.
