Birds of Paradise
JPG | SERIES | 3072x3072 | 2022
I have a recurring dream of flying above ruins and rubble. Before I was in the sky, I was still. People destroyed everything I knew and left nothing for me to protect and care for. I know that I am something new and should make a place for myself where I am accepted. I am the last of my kind and know that if I ever visit the world that I once called home, all of it will be buried in soil and foliage.
BIRDS OF PARADISE visits a timeless utopia resurrected from the lost dreams of artificial intelligence.
