Bird Watch is a site-specific performance based in the maze at Crystal Palace in London.

The audience embarked on a simple journey to the maze's centre, equipped with empty placards on sticks and pre-recorded bird sounds emanating from their phones, transforming them into participants of a weird ritualistic game. The journey through the maze intensifies with the symphony of bird calls, creating a trance-like atmosphere. This auditory landscape morphs into a textural cacophony, reflecting a sense of chaos and confusion, spiralling into an Arcadian nightmare.

As participants navigate this ritualistic web, they experience a blend of mythical self-realisation and a psychological game teetering on absurdity. The core of the maze revealed a stark contrast: silent, Panopticon-like observers, filming the 'participant-birds' and exuding a formidable sense of control and hierarchy. Corporate orienteering? Survival games? Or just authoritarianism and fate.
