Last of its kind: GALLINULA rosea crustulam

Mixed Media Assemblage, 2019. This Victorianesque faux taxidermy reminds us of our impact on the environment. Common name is Pink Cake Moorhen. This work also points to the irony of preserving something for posterity, whilst simultaneously contributing to its elimination. This kind of mixed message is prevalent in the hidden curriculum. Mixed media assemblage with gourd, polymer clay, artificial and dried vegetation, beads, wire, glass and resin.
