Known for her numerous art projects where images are created using numerous objects, artist Red Hong Yi has begun a new series of birds made with flower petals and leaves encouraging both herself and those who look at her art to rediscover their surroundings. Following her ‘31 days of creativity with food series‘ the Malaysian artist/architect has developed a collection of images in which she creates exotic birds rendered in flower petals (mostly those of gerbera flowers), herbs and twigs. Each month, Red Hong Yi selects a new material for experimentation and in the ‘flower-bird’ compilation, she carefully layers the delicate pieces on top of each other to create the portraits, extensively documenting her practice via her Instagram.
