Lucy Stevens

This year Stevens has explored the use of visuals to interpret a year’s worth of data based on feral pigeon behaviour, to support Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology with research into why pigeons exist in so many colour variations. Between 2010 – 2011 Stevens observed and fed pigeons in Leicester every Wednesday, counting and recording the colours of courting pigeons to support scientific research.

Half eaten bread and seed was created by feeding pigeons directly off sun print paper, with the colours altered and replaced using Photoshop.
