Bird In Hands Merch
Main Tag:
Description: In Berlin, my Bird of Peace takes the form of a dovecote of memory and reconciliation. Two open hands, side by side, turned downward, become a shelter for the birds. Inside, pigeons rest, visible through the openings of the monument, like a breath within history. The base is a pierced wall, inspired by the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. At that time I was 14 years old, and had the chance to live this historical moment.. As a child I still remember that immense turning point: a wall coming down, borders opening, families reuniting, and that rare feeling that freedom could truly change the world. Above the two intertwined doves, a metal sign carries these words in German: “Denk immer daran”( “Always remember.” ).
