Wall installation of five panels on board – abstracted, nature. Title refers to the interrelated movement of flocks of birds or schools of fish, and synchronicity found in the movement of creatures in the natural world – particularly a reference to the spectacular view of flocks of starlings wheeling about during autumn in preparation to roost. Each bird moves in relation to another forming a massive flux of activity, worked with patination and rich, colourful metal powders.
