A cutlery-born bird, shimmering in steel, singing a hymn of whimsy, grace, and transformation.
Crafted from reclaimed knives, forks, and spoons, Silver Songbird reshapes domestic tools into wings and song, carrying whimsy, humor, and elegance. A playful transformation of the everyday.
Birds have long been symbols of transcendence, their flight carrying human imagination skyward. Silver Songbird embodies this through transformation: once utensils of the home, now gleaming feathers of flight. In folklore, birds are omens, guides, and messengers — from the Celtic crane who guides souls, to the Norse swan maidens who transform into women. This sculpture taps into that same transformative magic, taking humble tools of the table and reshaping them into wings. Its polished surface shimmers, catching light like starlight, bringing levity and laughter into its presence. It is both humorous and reverent, reminding us that flight, even imagined in steel, remains a powerful symbol of freedom.
