One for Sorrow‘ is my contribution for Object with Love's Birdhouse project at VitraHaus. The work is inspired by a traditional children nursery rhyme about magpies, where the number of birds seen is said to predict good or bad luck.
One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for blood,
Four for a toy,
Five for a million,
Six for the one,
Seven for your fears never to be gone,
Eight for a flirt,
Nine for a roast,
Ten for a bird,
You must not ghost.
