The Carrion Bird, 12 x 16”
Mixed media on paper
Clive Barker: “The Carrion Bird does relate to Abarat but it doesn’t relate to anything that’s happened in Abarat yet, though it will. I know what’s going to happen in Book Five because I’ve drafted Book Four now and so I know what’s going to happen in Book Five.
"There are three matters which are the matters of Abarat: the matter of Love; the matter of War; and the matter of Time, yes? And so what happens in the fifth book is that all three of those things collide and Carrion’s own forces – in terms of the Carrion Birds, after which he’s named – manifest themselves. And this is an image of that.” Link to full interview with Clive.
