In 2013, artists Petrit Halilaj and Alvaro Urbano were both awarded with the Villa Romana Fellowship. During the months spent in Florence, they conceived the work For the Birds, a tunnel made with galvanised chicken wire stemming from the artists’ personal background of sharing their lives with two canary birds who were able to freely move in their shared living-studio space in Berlin. This idea of connection and sharing morphed into a construction that would enable these birds to again move freely between the living and studio the artists temporarily inhabited for a few months in Florence. With the help of friends, a large tunnel-like structure was installed on the Villa Romana compounds, which connected one part of the building to another, on the way spanning the large garden.
