Inspired by calligraphy and Japanese woodcuts, Søren has created a series of graphic images that show the landscape and large flocks of starlings. The starlings move as one unified organism that strongly opposes any external threat. The graphic and organic forms of the starling's murmur range from meditative to highly dramatic as they perform their incredible ballet of life and death.
