Gallery space with very large black PVC spike-heeled boots with regular yellow squares on the legs, arranged to look like lit windows on buildings. There is a screen in the background showing a brightly-coloured film.

Collage of historical images of dodos, overlaid to form a square. There is a large drawing of a flock of dodos on the short of a fantastical island, a small square naturalistic rendering of some living dodos in the top left corner, and in the centre a zoological pen and ink sketch of three dodo claws. Still from Leena Habiballa's film Dead as a Dodo.
