Finches Rocking Out

Paris-based artist CélesteBoursier-Mougenot originally trained as a musician. His "From Ear To Hear" installation features red-billed zebra finches and Gibson Les Paul electric guitars. Their feet alight on the guitars which are posed on stands, like perches, making random, unintentional music.

Here is a video from his 2010 show at Barbican Curve Gallery:



“From Here to Ear” runs from Jan. 18, 2014  through April 13, 2014 at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Mass.
