These were the first two birds in the series “ebb & flood collection 2020”. One day I decided to print these in a double-sided glossy A5 pamphlet (‘mini-poster’). And, for the first time since elementary school, I tried my hand at writing haiku’s. I distributed these free mini-posters to friends and neighbors (in the Netherlands), just to reach out and start conversations. And these were great conversations. We had all been in lockdown so long by then that just chatting at the door (even keeping distance) was special, in an everyday kind of way.
