About This Event

The exhibition '153 Returning Birds - Ban Lei' by Geneva-based artist Ban Lei is hosted at Pollok House in Glasgow on 27 September 2026. The new work features flocks of birds flying in formation along flight paths that cross both space and time.

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: 01 October 2026, 02 October 2026, 03 October 2026, 04 October 2026
