This figurine includes bird's feathers which rise up away from the mirror base and fly inside a central column of air. The feathers twist vertically around their own quills, just before dropping back on top of the base, where they're swept towards center and up once again by a sheet of air emanating coming from all points round the base perimeter. The piece is lit with a one source of light straight overhead, as well as the feathers create dark, dancing shadows in the bright circle on the ceiling, which is a reflect of the light from the flat mirror of the base. The convex mirror in the middle of the base, and the feathers on it, cast the less bright reflection and shadows over the ceiling and walls, covering the whole room. The gentle patter that the quills create while they reach the glass - is just like the sound of rain, and brings another aspect to the overall experience.
