Cities of Cliffs and Ledges

Summary
9 contemporary artists respond to the Artemis Collection in Leeds
Supported by
PSL project space, Leeds City Council
Description of project
An installation using rubber pigeon decoys and anti-perch spikes. Whilst the decoys are designed to lure pigeons to their death, the spikes are designed to deter birdlife. Within this duplicity and contradiction, the artists highlight the perils to both birds and humans of mistaking simulacra for the real thing, especially in a constructed world populated by representations that make the real world into something more manageable and tolerable
Description of work included
1. cities of cliffs and ledges – detail
2. cities of cliffs and ledges – decoy
3. cities of cliffs and ledges - installation
