About the work

The pigeon is a small, quiet assertion against the overwhelming scale of the concrete. It pecked at something invisible, perhaps a shard of something that once held a beverage, now broken down to a granular dust. There's a particular kind of stubborn persistence in that search, a minor but essential drive in a place built for transit and not much else. This moment suggests how life finds its purchase, not in grand gestures or deliberate plantings, but in the forgotten cracks, in the residues. It implies that sustenance is never truly absent, only hidden, demanding a certain patient attention to discover it. This is not a heroic narrative of survival, but a quiet demonstration of simply *being*, here, now, in this particular, unyielding space.
