It was something really special. My first exhibition that I shared with my little-great art students. It was an exhibition dedicated to birding and nature observation. I wanted to enable people to look at nature ¨through my eyes¨. Along with illustrations of my birds. I added some interactive elements to the exhibition. For example, binoculars that could be used to observe the birds in my illustrations placed high on the wall to give an impression of the distance the birds are usually from us. Nearby, I placed some of my quick sketches of various birds that I made during bird watching and research. Another interactive part of the exhibit was a wall where some of my bird illustrations were transformed into collages or cut into pieces and filled with pencil swirls that depict parts of how we see and remember birds. I left some empty frames for visitors to try their hand at depicting how they remembered the birds they saw earlier. My little students' amazing collages were a continuation of this idea. Using bits and pieces of my bird illustrations and adding what they remember and have in their minds when they think of birds that turned into a stunning collection of colorful bird-inspired artwork.
This exhibition is not only about birds, but also about our relationship with nature. It features illustrations of my personal experiences surrounded by symbols and elements of nature.
