Hunters display the animals they kill as a form of home decor, thus creating a trophy out of a once living creature. I have created a series of "trophies" that show how ingrained all elements of the creature are with each other with a focus on their anatomy. Elements of their natural environment are present within the piece, thus showing the integration of the animal within nature. This piece represents the hunting of the African Impala for use of their horns. Wood, joint compound, clay, hand made paper made with dead leaves, acrylic, spray paint

Elephants are valued most for their ivory tusks. The complexity and variation of this creature is overlooked and reduced to simply the value of these tusks. This piece is a reflection of this reduction, with the tusks beginning to vanish in their translucent state. They are both incredibly present, yet missing.

Due to inhumane and irresponsible breeding techniques, many purebred dogs suffer from genetic disorders. This results in their being deemed "not up to standard" according to the American Kennel Club. This piece reflects the negative effects of genetic breeding on five breeds, including bulldogs, pugs, dobermans, dalmatians, and bloodhounds. They suffer from difficulty breathing, cataracts, pinned ears, skin rashes, and drooping skin around the eyes that lead to infection.
