Nesting in the City

Alice Boore

Updated: Jul 21, 2021

-Bring the protection of the nest to the place I feel most comfortable

-Experiment with size and materials.

-Occupy and inhabit space

-PROCESS. Slow and selective building like a bird.

-Must work on structural integirty.

-Like a nest it may break and need to be fixed.

-FILM BUILDING! Process.

-Use of dometsic personal materials and nesting materials.

-Incense, candles, wax melts, blankets and slippers etc.

-Bringing the home nest into Uni as a protection.

-Accumulation. Magpies nest


REFERENCE:

-Hubert Duprat Caddis Fly Larvae: Like the larvae I am protecting myself with what is valuable and surrounding me. I will nest with whatever is around me as it becomes valuable.

-Joseph Beuys 'I Like America and America Likes Me!'. Living in the studio and inhabiting the space as a performance. Being like a bird.


-Keep in mind natural structures highlighted By Andy and Peter Holdens natural selection (https://www.artangel.org.uk/project/natural-selection/) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2qhrEku7UI. BOWER BIRD makes nest as art NOT as a place for eggs. Embrace the ways of the bower bird. Think of nest structures.
