Gingernut birdbox Recipe:
6 slabs gingerbread
1cherry
1 flake
glue: icing sugar and tea
Mathod:
Assemble and poke the bits in the holes.
According to wiki, ' Bird Box, or nest box is a man-made box provided for animals to nest in. Nest boxes are most frequently utilized for wild and domesticated birds in which case they are also called birdhouses.' I think birdbox is a great combination of two words - bird, slang for woman; box, slang for hindquarters or intimate areas. This series of birdboxes - 16 days - 16 sculptures, explores notions of sexuality through the icon of a birdbox or nesting box, and the ideas about 'home' - what that means - temporary or permanent, at home where we are, in our own skins, and how often we want to be somewhere else - a wistfulness or hankering for escapism - going on holidays, travelling... and the yearning to go home, quite often not to a place but a time in memory, as the physical place of home is a constantly changing physical space, place, reflecting the constant change in our lives.
A birdbox is a temporary home for most birds, but a place to be returned to, season after season, to rebuild and regenerate. Cherry and Flake, a boy/girl thing, makes me smile. I hope it does for you, too.
