It’s not the bats’ fault.

Holed up in Lockdown in London during the Covid pandemic, I made a bat-head mask, I made a skeleton.

I made a miniature wood by collecting twigs and moss from the local cemetery, scraping it off the gravestones. "Not Yet Out Of The Wood" is a phrase that we kept hearing during our long entanglement with COVID-19. Human contact with Bats kept cruelly in cages for food in a market has been identified as the most likely way this zoonotic virus spread to humans. They have been around for 50 million years and now they, and their habitats are being destroyed at a terrifying rate. I wanted to give them a right of reply.
