The chorus draw together the motifs of bird and clown, Neorealism and Etruscans. Toto’s avian profile embodies trickster figure and absurdist Commedia dell’ Arte unhinged puppets. Flocks migrating from Pasolini’s Uccellacci e Uccellini evoke a ridiculous spirit of the carnivalesque - ‘bringing together the sacred and the profane, the lofty with the low, the great with the insignificant, the wise with the stupid’.
Dimensions variable (Typ.5x5x4cm). Price is for each head.
