Eurasian birds (2025) is a series of workshops and art work with the artists Ebba Moi and Anna Carin Hedberg. It blends poetry, nature, and community, by talking and looking at migratory birds flying between Asia and Scandinavia. The artists invited to participatory workshop while talking about the birds lives and situation. The hands-on process fosters creativity, reflection, and learning while connecting to both local nature and global themes.
Eurasian Birds takes as its starting point bird species that belong to both Thailand and Norway—species that migrate across vast distances.
As part of KunstArena (2025), the artists held a workshop with students from Åmot School in Rena, Norway. The students sculpted birds from clay, inspired by local migratory species. The workshop took place in the forest, where the students placed their birds on thin branches in the landscape—creating a temporary home for the migrants. While sculpting, they listened to bird sounds and reflected on questions such as: Why do birds migrate? Can we say they belong to a place when they constantly follow the seasons?
The process opened up reflections on nature’s cycles and humanity’s place within them, weaving together local biotopes with mythology and memory.
The workshop was also held at Ebihara Shōten during the Tokyo Biennale (nov 2025) and in Bangkok as part of the Bangkok Art Book Fair (dec 2025), where visitors were invited to explore these themes and “think with” migratory birds.
