The Pigeon Project
Commissioned by
Sandberg Instituut, Amsterdam
Project
The project ‘Pigeon Bites’ was presented at Experimenta Design 2008.
Students of the Sandberg Institute Amsterdam, researched Privacy in contemporary society. Interviews with politicians, scientists and social experts, led to several public interventions during the month of June. These were communicated to the public via homing pigeons.
Politicians tell us that ‘we have nothing to hide.’ We believe that this is not always that case. On the back of a billboard, we projected documentation of our project and we symbolically proved that ‘we do have something to hide’; giving the pigeons a temporary home inside the billboard.
Pigeon, whole grilled, or wrapped in pastry, comprised the main course of the meal, accompanied by canapes of seeds and grain in the guise of pigeon food. Consuming the pigeon became symbolic of the loss of privacy exposed by the project.
