Situated in the heart of Shoreditch, at the Rochelle School, an exhibition titled ‘Ghosts of Gone Birds’ has emerged to raise awareness of extinct and endangered species of birds. Using artists of different genres, an eclectic mix of sculptures, paintings and prints have been produced to highlight a serious conservation issue. Ceri Levy, the curator of the exhibition, writes that the aim was to ‘…breathe life back into the birds we’ve lost…’.Each artist involved has interpreted extinction in a unique way which has created a truly fascinating exhibition.
