"Ornithology" takes the form of a single wing in mid-arc, its paper feathers layered and overlapping in a sweeping curve that rises toward the upper left before trailing off into longer, more open forms at the lower right. A solid circular form near the wing's inner edge anchors the composition — suggesting a joint, a socket, the hidden mechanism of flight — while the surrounding feather shapes grow progressively larger and more spacious as they extend outward. There is something both anatomical and celestial about "Ornithology," as though Mintz has rendered not just the physical structure of a wing but the idea of lift itself, the quiet engineering behind every departure.
