DescriptionFive vertical aluminum panels with distressed white borders, each with a print that is a portion of an overall landscape scene of dense tree or shrubbery branches in which sit a large number of birds.eMuseum Notes
You can almost hear the chatter of this flock of birds settled into a thicket of branches together. The location may be a nature reserve in Janos, Chihuahua, dedicated to protecting a thriving prairie ecosystem that has nutured the re-introduction of bison, wolves, and other animals. The image offeres a view of natural of abundance that most people no longer experience in person.
