Travel has always been Barbara Hamby's muse, and in Bird Odyssey
she hits the road hard, riding a train across Siberia, taking a car
trip from Memphis to New Orleans on Highway 61, and following The
Odyssey from Troy to Ithaka. The concatenation of images released
include Elvis and Tolstoy cruising through the sky in a pink
Cadillac, Homer and Robert Johnson discussing their art in the
Underworld, and the women in The Odyssey telling their side of the
story, because what's a woman to do in this world of men? She has
to strike out on her own, ask the right questions, and tell her own
story, translating the world into her own bright lie.
