Birds

This page shows my observation, experimentation and development work for my project on birds for which I focused on Sebastian Faulks' novel Birdsong. I linked the bird form with the concept of freedom - the birds in flight represent the liberation of the souls of the soliders in WW1.

 

For the project as a whole I achieved 100%.
