This folio is an homage to the famous ornithologist John James Audubon’s monumental book Birds of America, originally printed and published between 1827-1838. It contains the documentation from an urban intervention in which hand cut photographs depicting birds in natural size, has been wheat-pasted on walls in cities around the world.

To date 5179 different images of birds have been placed in cities on five continents: Gothenburg (2006), Berlin (2007), Tel Aviv (2008), Casablanca (2009), New York (2010), Reykjavik (2011), Madrid (2012), Malmö (2013), Rio de Janeiro (2014), Buenos Aires (2015), London (2016) Stockholm (2017), Copenhagen (2023) and Oslo (2023).
