Smoke Screen
This knitted work is called Smoke Screen and was made in response to the burning
of the worlds forests to increase profits from agriculture and building.
These knitted parrots are caught in the smoke and flames and although we hear
about the loss of the trees we do not hear about the wild life caught up in
a fire storm. I have read about the charred bodies of the kiwi left behind after the
burning of the bush on D'Urville Island when it was cleared for farming.
