Trash Dove: What its all about
If you use Facebook, you might have probably come across a head-banging purple pigeon in the comments section. That is the trash dove. Lets try to decode what its all about.
The Trash Dove was created by the artist Syd Weiler, originally as a sticker pack for iOS 10. By the end of last month, it debuted on Facebook.
The memes on this bird owe their popularity to Thailand, where the head banging bird featured in a video along with a dancing cat on a page with millions of followers. Very soon, it was all over the Thai social media, with several newspapers reporting on it.
From their, it has been pretty much North for the bird. Today, it is unmissable on Facebook, with tons of fan art complementing the original idea.
Weiler is reported to have said, “I didn’t really understand it, but it seemed like a lot of people were really loving my work, and that’s a great feeling as an artist.”
So the next time you see those birds, you know what's really up.
