Perroquet by SHOWstudio

If you, like me, have a bit of a parrot fetish, then the Perroquet project by SHOWstudio will not disappoint. The project comprises of eight film shorts and a selection of photographs by fashion photographer Sølve Sundsbø, was exhibited in Paris and Stockholm in 2008. The photographs present ‘frozen moments’ of the bird’s journey; rather than showing its full body, the cropped viewpoints bring abstract qualities to Sundsbø’s powerful images, while the slow motion short films seduce the viewer as the slender bird flies slowly across the screen showcasing its gorgeous long feathers and and striking colours. Oh so sexy...view the films here.
