Story:

inspiration from a Japanese Pheonix Bantam rooster, decorative ornaments, mythology, symbolism, numerology and the chakra. It's a battle between the ego(solar plexus) and the true self, the machine is trying to control the earth, while the heart and throat is locked and separated not connecting the top chakra with the beautiful roots (feathers).

A phoenix has a colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet. (or purple, blue, and green according to some legends) "A mythical bird that never dies (rebirth), the phoenix flies far ahead to the front, always scanning the landscape and distant space. It represents our capacity for vision, for collecting sensory information about our environment and the events unfolding within it. The phoenix, with its great beauty, creates intense excitement and deathless inspiration." - The Feng Shui Handbook, feng shui Master Lam Kam Chuen

Thanks to curator Tommy Blaquiere we had some good times shaking some cans in the sun, close to Ladbroke Grove and the walkway through to Portobello Market.

Im counting on four fingers as to how many times I be playing with spraycans too, keep it coming!
