In a world where we are all longing to fly away from the rigid structures that confine us.
This art piece symbolizes how we will have to create our own safe spaces, working with the existing structures, instead of against them.

The metal base shows us the rigidity of the world, inspired by the form of a scold's bridle. A torture device used to silence noncompliant women. The metal is manipulated and transformed into something new.

By bending the metal and adding branches collected with care, a nest is created.
If they give us metal, we will fight back with nature and nurture.
If they restrain us we will just find new ways to grow.
Mother nature has the ability to reclaim any structure.
We will move from a place of silence to a place to sing.

Have a look inside to experience what it means like to speak again after being quiet for so long.
