BIRD OF PREY - New work but was already accepted for the serpent's egg cancelled exhibition

On the ground, at the present location of the two "concrete discs" a giant bathtub bung and its cap (about 2m in diameter) covered with marine concretions. Going around the walls of the room, a blue-green water line 15cm wide, painted at a 2.5m high. In the center of the room, about 6m from the ground: a fragmented Skyvan (the main small propeller plane used for death flights, the device echoes the fragmented truck exhibited in the entrance hall of Museum). The aircraft's hatch is open.Sound ambience: Argentinian popular hits of the late 70ies recorded under 30cm of water (what you hear of a music when you put your head under the water in a bathtub). The title echoes Jim Morrison's eponymous poem.
Residency/collaborative youth workshop: Concerning the suspended plane: I have bought a toy models which could serve as model for the realization of a very light copy made of canvas and polystyrene. I could do this during a residency in BA and/or during a children's workshop within the museum: Every year children from poor neighborhoods are already invited to participate in workshops at the museum were their works are then exhibited.
