XAVI BOU | THE BEAUTY OF BIRD FLIGHT
October 2 - 25, 2025
Opening First Thursday, October 2, 6 - 8 pm
Using a technique inspired by chronophotography, I capture thousands of images in high-speed bursts to compose large-format photographs that trace the flight path of different species. The resulting compositions reveal stunning visual patterns, situated between scientific documentation and poetic abstraction.
Among the highlights of the show are my recordings of the migratory behavior of Vaux’s swifts, whose spiraling descent into their communal roosts at dusk transforms into mesmerizing aerial choreography.
Ornithographies has exhibited in museums and festivals worldwide and featured in outlets such as National Geographic, The Guardian, and Audubon. This exhibition invites viewers to observe nature from a different angle – where movement becomes a form of expression. - Xavi Bou
