SEBASTIAN ERRAZURIZ PERCHES TAXIDERMIED BIRDS ON A CHANDELIER

Sebastian errazuriz is known for putting a humorous and often cynical twist on ev eryday
objects, his ‘XL bird chandelier’ was motivated by a similar lamp that was in the artist’s
grandmother’s house which would often attract birds that would fly through open
windows and perch on the candelabra, unfortunately, upon their exist, some of the
feathered creatures would get injured, or die while trying to escape out through a
differ ent closed window, in a twist to pay an hom – mage to the fallen wildlife, errazuriz
presents a traditional crystal luminaire that is deco rated with 50 taxidermied birds —
almost as fragile and delicate as the glass pieces them selves — immortalized as
ornamentation
