The paper aviary takes its inspiration from the collection of exotic birds that had Charles II, which was located in the heart of St James’s Park during the 1600s.

The exhibition also refers to the heritage of St James’ style and craftsmanship. Each handmade bird has a plumage with a pattern inspired by the fashion houses and artisans of the area.

The crow’s feet, the moles are taken from the frames of brands like John Smedley, Turnbull & Asser and Aquascutum, that give life to each bird. In order to finish enriching the experience, the exhibition listens to a soundtrack made with songs from the different birds.
