Funny Birds’ Secret Garden is a poetic celebration of nature’s charm and artistic expression, where each bird tells a story of imagination, craftsmanship, and the spirit of Venice. Created from the whimsical sketches of Anna Paola Cibin and brought to life by a Murano glass maestro, these expressive creatures are shaped in molten glass at 1200 degrees and delicately hand-finished to reflect the artist’s vision. Each bird’s character and color evoke the wonder of discovery and the delicate harmony of the Venetian lagoon, turning the piece into a vibrant tribute to the natural world.
This enchanting installation features 46 unique glass birds, gracefully arranged within a custom-designed open aviary structure of branches and ambient birdsong. More than a decorative artwork, Funny Birds’ Secret Garden is a meditative space—an immersive experience that speaks to creativity, resilience, and the joyful unpredictability of life. It’s an evocative fusion of Murano tradition and contemporary narrative, inviting viewers to reconnect with their inner curiosity through the delicate voices of glass and imagination.
