„Bird by Bird“ – Miniature Painting Project by Artist Dina Brodsky
Die Ornithologie zählt bekanntlich zu den Quellen der Inspiration zahlreicher Künstler. Im Rahmen des „Audubon Mural Project“ brachten vor einigen Jahren z.B. diverse Street Artists, über 300 bedrohte Vogelarten in Form von Murals an die Fassaden von Manhattan/NYC. Die spanische Künstlerin Sara Landeta illustrierte im Rahmen ihres Projekts „Medicine as Metapher“, diverse Vogelarten in Medikamentenschachteln. Die in New York City lebende Künstlerin Dina Brodsky wandelt auf ganz ähnlichen Pfaden und ließ sich vom Pablo Neruda-Zitat „Bird by bird I’ve come to know the earth“ inspirieren. Einige Highlights aus ihrer sehenswerten „Bird by Bird„-Serie gibt’s direkt hier unten. Just have a look:
“Bird by bird I’ve come to know the earth,” said Pablo Neruda in his book Art of Birds, a quote that has since inspired artist Dina Brodsky to begin her own exploration of birds in an ongoing miniature painting project by the same name: Bird by Bird. The artist first began the project last year as a way to explore the native birds around New York city as her now 18-month-old baby napped in a stroller. The endeavor has since grown to incorporate more rare and exotic birds depicted in everything from ballpoint pen to watercolor and gouache. The bird paintings have become so popular with fans that she’s created a dedicated Instagram account to collect them all.
