Every few years, birds of the UK, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are assessed and placed into one of three categories of concern, with red being those identified as in most urgent need of help. The latest figures highlight 70 species of birds on the Red List.
The Red List is a site-responsive installation consisting of 70 small birds sewn using hi-vis fabric. Exhibited in 3 locations:
Light and Thread, St George’s Art Centre, Gravesend in 2021
Midwinter Night’s Camp for Glow Arts Light Trail, Maidstone - 2022
Whose Hoo Heritage Festival, Slough Fort, Hoo Peninsula - 2023 (accompanied by a soundscape of bird song recorded on the Hoo Peninsula)
