Description

Every copy of CP16 includes a limited edition accordion book by Slavko Djuric and 9x13 woodcut titled Who Owns the Sky by Rob Swainston. Issue 16 of Carrier Pigeon, the artist-run fiction and fine art quarterly, keeps with its established tradition of exploring parts of the inner-workings of human perception and a dark look at the human condition.

This issue is sealed within Rob Swainston's featured print and cover design, Who Owns the Sky, of a startling x-ray of a pigeon's skeleton. It's a look at what is inside the bird, the bare bones and the mechanics of its movements caught in stillness. Once this issue's seal is broken, the six works of fiction and six artist portfolios shatter this stillness and take turns revealing ruminations on darkness within the self.
