Taryn Simon’s Field Guide to Birds of the West Indies examines the intersection of ornithology, political history, and visual culture. The work documents the birds featured in the 1962 James Bond film Dr. No, juxtaposing the fictionalized setting of the Caribbean with the actual avian species native to the region. Through this rigorous archival approach, Simon explores the construction of identity and the influence of cinematic imagery on our perception of the natural world.
