The “Chick” installation at the Five Corners Square sent on April 18, 2025 (17:27) by Warszawski. 68 comments, 425 views.

at 45mm, 1/125 f/6.3, ISO 100, hand held. Warsaw, Poland.

It may not be a chocolate egg, but it is almost three meters long, over two meters high, weighs 2 tons and from inside you can hear a real heartbeat, chirping and beak knocking on the shell... The egg, a work of Polish artist Joanna Rajkowska, is an acrylic plaster model of a song thrush egg. If we hug it, put our head next to it, thanks to a special installation inside the egg we will hear the recorded real sounds of the bird hatching, and the entire egg vibrates because it acts as a membrane allowing us to listen and feel the vibrations of sound waves. The artist "laid" a similar egg earlier. The installation was created as part of Frieze Sculpture 2019. Rajkowska showed her sound sculpture in London's Regents Park. It was a blackbird egg. It may not be a Faberge egg, although the cost of the installation is a quarter of a million zlotys, or about 58,500.00 euros, but it is certainly a wonderful symbol of new, awakening life... The photo shows the installation in the center of Warsaw with the participation of a nice Warsaw passer-by:) ************************************************ Non sarà un uovo di cioccolato, ma è lungo quasi tre metri, alto più di due, pesa due tonnellate e dall'interno si possono sentire un vero battito cardiaco, un cinguettio e il becco che batte sul guscio... L'uovo, opera dell'artista polacca Joanna Rajkowska, è un modello in gesso acrilico di un uovo di tordo bottaccio. Se lo abbracciamo, avvicinandogli la testa, grazie a una speciale installazione all'interno dell'uovo sentiremo i suoni reali registrati della schiusa dell'uccello, e l'intero uovo vibra perché agisce come una membrana che ci permette di ascoltare e percepire le vibrazioni delle onde sonore. L'artista aveva già "deposto" un uovo simile in precedenza. L'installazione è stata creata nell'ambito di Frieze Sculpture 2019. Rajkowska ha esposto la sua scultura sonora a Regent's Park a Londra. Si trattava di un uovo di merlo. Forse non sarà un uovo Fabergé, anche se il costo dell'installazione è di un quarto di milione di zloty, ovvero circa 58.500,00 euro , ma è certamente un meraviglioso simbolo di vita nuova e risvegliata... La foto mostra l'installazione nel centro di Varsavia con la partecipazione di un simpatico passante di Varsavia :)
