Mystery Bird came to Doncaster in February 2023.

Mystery Bird is an illuminated bird cage with a magical soundtrack that will travel along the streets of your area, before coming to a halt and setting a magical projection of birds free across your homes and buildings.

This was a Quays Culture UK commission – www.quaysculture.com 

Birds are symbolic of hope and our desire for freedom and engagement with nature is widely recognised as inherently positive for humans - making us feel alive and connected to our fragile eco-system.
