View all →About This Event
Sonica Glasgow: 153 Returning Birds will showcase the work of Ban Lei at Pollok House on 25 September 2026. Various performers are included in this exhibition focusing on flight paths across space and time. Further information is available by checking the website.
In his new work, Geneva-based Ban Lei imagines flocks of birds flying in formation along flight paths which cross not only space, but time. Three sets of 51 sculpted birds constructed from bellows and whistles – small, medium and large varieties representing three generations – hang from the ceiling, connected by a red thread of fortune. The birds can be “played” by visitors, setting up a constellation of responsive sounds as the birds twitter among themselves, a gentle composition formed from intuitive energy. With the support of the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia. Additional Dates: 26 September 2026, 27 September 2026, 01 October 2026, 02 October 2026, 03 October 2026, 04 October 2026
