Annette Messager


French Artist Annette Messager ' My Boarders' is created by knitting sweaters 
and scarves for these small dead sparrows. 
There is a deep sadness in the metaphor of knitting garments
 for these little dead birds,
Annette Messager has obtained a motherly role 
in where the sparrows act as surrogates for children.  
This piece is personal and moving in the way of Hemingway's six word story
 'For sale:baby's shoes, never worn.'
