Pale-headed flycatcher [from Box of Birds]
Anne FERRAN: artist
Since 2012, Ferran has collaborated with dancers in Australia, France and Finland to create her choreographed photographs of figures manipulating large lengths of coloured felt using improvised movements. The abstract elements of colour, line and form are altered by the human figure supporting them, while the human presence transforms a felt blanket into imagery charged with notions of concealment and communication. Fabric and form meet in the 'Box of Birds' series as the textile shapes create new types of being.
