The installation that resembles a birds nest is in the tree branch. The artwork is made of light brown transparent handmade paper from recycled/used unbleached coffee filters and inside there is a shape similar to a bird's egg that is tinted blue from the handmade ink.](https://2021.theshow.ecuad.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/nest-iphone-full_v3-pixels.jpg)

Air is one artwork within a larger body of work titled Air, Earth, Water.
This is a series of temporary site-specific sculpture installations that looks at the connections between the human and non-human environments and how they are impacted by each other. Integral to the process-based work is the exploration of material-making to create handmade papers and inks using natural and recycled materials.
