The Thousands

Description:
There’s an art to making kites. If you want the damn things to fly then you better know what you’re doing. Clemens Habicht has taken that to concept its logical conclusion by combining kite-making with ‘proper art’. Basically, he’s created 100 collaged kites featuring birds. Kites that really fly – for real. He’s even got himself a video installation showing said kites flying over Paris to prove the point. We could tell you all about the other works he’s previously showcased and the numerous videoclips he’s made, but this kite thing pretty much sells itself. – MN.
