Wings and other things

Personal narrative told through mechanical wings

Retractable, flappable wings created for an art class exploring the politics of textiles. Feathers were made using embroidery, applique, crochet, and printmaking techniques. Pulling on the ropes unfurled the wings, and the wings were flapped by natural hinge movement.
