All rushed about madly towards the end.

Spider Ant Sparrow is a new project drawing upon the loss of Iris' father, Mark, in 2025. Mark was a behavioural and evolutionary ecologist and left behind a trove of research and ephemera from his career. Haunting, seeking, foraging, agitating, regurgitating, releasing. In witnessing death, in witnessing a whole life in retrospect. Mark played the trumpet when he was a boy. Iris played with spiders in the fireplace.
