‘The Migrant’ is the story of one bird’s remarkable journey – told through the character of Mynah – from Indonesia to Singapore and later to London, where it became homesick and stopped singing. Years and years of relocation and persecution followed. But the project also tells a wider story about our treatment of animals, social engineering and our attempt to shape an ideal society. At the same time it is a metaphor for our relationship with ‘the migrant’.
In this layered project, López uses audio, video, text and photography to take you on an unprecedented journey.
