Artist's biography

Jenny Brady

Description

'A portrait of a magnificent bird draws on the 30-year relationship between animal cognition scientist Irene Pepperberg and the African grey parrot she trained in elements of human language. This depiction of the animal attempts to give voice to the creature while raising questions about what creates and limits language. Wow and Flutter features a score made in collaboration with musician Andrew Fogarty, employing a mixture of field recordings, electronics and found material to conjure a unique sound world.' (Sourced from the artist on July 1st 2016)
