2015oil on linen± 130 x 130 cmWork in progress= = =A while ago, Adele stumbled upon an Instagram account of a pigeon called Camp. It said “High-class Chicago pigeon. Discarded as an egg by window installers who destroyed the nest, then found by an unexpecting couple”. Adele instantly became fan and follower of @campthepigeon and, over time, became friends with Camp’s surrogate parents.The exhibition #CAMPTHEPIGEON consists of a series of portraits of Camp The Pigeon in a human, urban environment. On Instagram he can be seen standing on the edge of the laptop screen, taking a bath in the kitchen sink or chilling on the dog’s head. This particular pigeon embodies what Adele always saw in street pigeons: their similarities with humans, striking attitude and ability to flourish in an urban environment.
