This work extends perceptual fields into tactility, intensifying the interconnected relationship between birds and human audiences. All species create perceptual fields through the mind’s reach across space, forming connections between observer and observed (Sheldrake, 2003, pp. 15–128). Although the retina receives an inverted and reversed image, the brain reconstructs it into an upright view (Sheldrake, 2003, pp. 112–113). This mediation makes vision a kind of ‘second-hand’ experience. Could reversing perception restore a sense of visual immediacy, opening up unfamiliar ways of seeing the world? Perceptual Field (2025) hope to make notice a new perception and the nonhuman lifeforms that have been living with us.
