Abstract
Flight / Plight, is a site-specific moving image work, made by Jane Watt and Susan Barnet as Blast Radius during a Bird Ringing and Art Residency organised in spring 2026 by Albanian Ornithological Society (AOS) in the Vjosë-Nartë Delta Protected Area in Albania. Over 4 days artists, writers, musicians, curators, scientists, ecologists and activists from 19 countries observed bird conservation and bird ringing data collection up close during spring migration.
Flight / Plight references the important bird monitoring data collection that is being carried out by AOS evidencing the significance of the area as a key site for birds on the Adriatic Flyway, a major migratory route for millions of birds traveling between European breeding grounds and wintering sites in Africa and the Mediterranean. The plight of the birds in this area and their flight route is under threat by the construction of an international airport and development in the heart of the Protected Zone.
