◄ An Art Project

HOMELAND

Like a bird

When our art group first met, we didn't have any clear ideas about what we are going to draw or make. We were thinking about the concept of home, but we couldn't exactly pinpoint how to present it.

Firstly, we were thinking about drawing of the world, which is embraced by two hands. Then one of us came with the idea of a bird and we had to agree with her, because what is better symbol than a bird, which symbolyses the freedom, peace and wisdom? At the end, we decided to work with the concept of birds around the world, where every bird represents one of the nationalities.

So, what meaning does our project have?

We wanted to show, that all humans around the world should be free as the birds and even if everyone has different roots, we should be able to go wherever we want and feel home. As migratory birds we have our original homes, but should be able to travel all around the world without borders, always having the opportunity to come back home in peace.
