Blackbirds
Halloween
Walk act

When the moon stands high on Halloween, the blackbirds appear as a mysterious walk-act in the streets. Perched high on stilts, their dark silhouettes rise from the night, cawing and whispering as if guarding secrets. Among pumpkins and shadows they move slowly and elegantly, silent sentinels of the dark celebration.
The aritsts come from the Netherlands
