Biodiversity Reclamation Suits by Laurel Roth Hope
“Biodiversity Reclamation Suits for Urban Pigeons” is a series by American artist Laurel Roth Hope, featuring crocheted suits of extinct birds, made to measure for the ubiquitous urban pigeons.
“Inspired by the traditional use of fiber-craft to provide safety and comfort, I have been crocheting small suits for urban pigeons that disguise them as extinct birds, thereby (visually) re-creating biodiversity and placing a soothing ‘cozy’ on environmental fears.”
