Grey Parrot

Grey Parrot (Gris Du Gabon in French) carved in jacaranda wood, with legs in recycled brass (padlock and faucet melted)

Like all animals in creation from L'Équipée, each bird is unique, sizes, plumage colour and beak shape vary according to each individual.

In Nairobi's boui-bouis, chick chips are very spicy fries that accompany nyama chomas (barbecue), and flirts worthy of the name. For L'Équipée it is a series of 10 species of birds from the Rift Valley, hand-carved by Nicodemas, an ornithologist sculptor. They proudly contribute to the protection of biodiversity by financially supporting the Nature Kenya association.
