Royal companions, war veterans, friend and foe — the pigeon has been alongside humans through a number of historical events. But how did they end up so abundant in our streets, with their copious poop and a nickname like rats with wings? Perhaps the answer can be found in how we perceive and subsequently treat them.

Pigeonholed aims to question this negative perception and initiate reflections on human-pigeon relationships through a series of stories. These stories utilise conversational workshops and playful experiments and can be found on the Pigeonholed website.
