About Bower Birds
Bowerbirds are a family of birds with an eye for the aesthetic. Male bowerbirds build structures (bowers), decorating them with sticks and other brightly colored objects.
They creatively construct these bowers using a wide array of objects including shells, leaves, flowers, feathers, stones, and berries; today, they also incorporate discarded human articles such as broken glass, rifle shells, colorful plastics, coins, and nails. They spend hours arranging these collections into interesting decorative structures to attract a mate.

How they inspire my work:
Aesthetics as important to life - Oddly enough, I often find spaces designed with the sole purpose of functionality in mind to be less functional. I am more productive when I am in an aesthetically appealing space. Beauty brings me joy, and being happy makes me more productive. I am always striving to find the intersection between the functional and the aesthetic.
