Our class went to the Doris Mccarthy Gallery at UTSC today to see the "You cannot kill what is already dead" exhibition. This exhibition is going to be the topic of our final research paper. It was a kind of creepy gallery. One of the most interesting exhibit I saw was a dead pigeon with a light shining towards it. The pigeon was laying on its back, but its shadow was standing. There were also sounds created in the background of pigeon cries. Its mouth was moving when the sound started playing. I think this exhibit was probably showing how even though the bird is dead, its soul is still alive, and there are many sad stories that it wants to tell because its cries are quite depressing. The theme of this exhibition is zombies, so the pigeon was like a zombie pigeon. There are also a lot of other interesting art work.
