Synopsis
The project turned the oversize vitrine into a cage for a oversized bird (3.2 meter). It took up the former installation (a neon tube installed by light-artist Dan Flavin) by using a similar neon tube, but placing a bird on top, sitting in the corner of its cage. The vitrine was lit by night and looked like a bird cage.
