A multi-disciplinary project connecting arts- and science-based approaches to addressing the urgent problem of population decline for the Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia).
Owly Infrastructures
Nature, in the common sense, refers to essences unchanged by man; space, the air, the river, the leaf. Art is applied to the mixture of his will with the same things, as in a house, a canal, a statue, a picture. But his operations taken together are so insignificant, a little chipping, baking, patching, and washing, that in an impression so grand as that of the world on the human mind, they do not vary the result.
Undoubtedly we have no questions to ask which are unanswerable. We must trust the perfection of the creation so far, as to believe that whatever curiosity the order of things has awakened in our minds, the order of things can satisfy. Every man’s condition is a solution in hieroglyphic to those inquiries he would put.
Mapping and Unmapping
Humans are encroaching on land that Burrowing Owls would use for nesting. As humans set up nesting sites for Burrowing Owls, thinking through potential locations requires thinking through the multiple layers of complexity a space holds (we looked at history, culture, landscape, habitat).Nunc consectetur id lectus sed accumsan.

Tending to Habitats
A film about hobbyist bird watchers, a catalogue of different birds, paired with the noises they make. Each bird is listed by their scientific name so things seem more official.
