Mythological Bird, a multi-medium exhibition explores the afterlife of extinct birds
through recycled paper dresses and digital projection mapping.
Incline Gallery is pleased to present Mythological Bird, featuring work by Bay Area Artists, Robin David and Jeffrey Yip. Inspired by extinct birds, Mythological Bird transports the viewer into an alternate realm where the spirit of the bird world and the real world collide, transforming the gallery into a mythological place.
By combining David’s paper wearable dresses and paper environmental installations with Yip’s digital projection mapping, the show pays homage to extinct birds. Each mythological bird dress will be displayed within an elaborate paper installation environment representing their past lives, while some will tell stories of how they came to extinction. Created from recycled paper, wire, cardboard and digital projected motion graphics, Mythological Bird recreates a bird afterlife based on the jungle, swamps and deserts they once occupied. Building off of a species that was once real and alive, David and Yip hope to embody the birds’ spirit by connecting the materials of the present to the histories they onced lived in the past.
David and Yip aspire to share a different approach to the gallery experience by immersing viewers within the art rather than observing the art from a distance. David focusing on environmental paper installation and Yip’s projection mapping work enables the viewer and the art to communicate.
