Xavi Bou: Ornithographies

This beautiful and fascinating show uses long-exposure photography to capture the movement of flocks of birds on the wing. The result is landscapes with forms that look nothing like what we usually see of birds in the air: towers of scribble, train tracks, zippers, smudges, lane markings. Even when the photos are in color, the bird tracks are black, giving them their own dark energy. The wild marks of movement give proof to our suspicions about how winged creatures might move en masse.
