520    $a "In 2011 I made photographs of extinct bird skins held in the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. I photographed seven bird species (Bachman's Warbler, Carolina Parakeet, Dusky Seaside Sparrow, Eskimo Curlew, Heath Hen, Ivory Billed Woodpecker and the Passenger Pigeon) for this project. I have found great pleasure in reading different accounts, ranging from essays to encyclopedic style entries, about species of extinct birds. The continued existence of these birds in the form of skins, specimens and eggs at museums worldwide, is evidence of our impulse to preserve. I have learned that advances in the science of cloning, have some pondering the startling possibility that extinct creatures might be reborn. Preservation, and the work of writers such as Christopher Cokinos (Hope is the Thing With Feathers) and Errol Fuller (Extinct Birds) give many extinct bird species a chance at another form of life. A life lived through story"--Artist's statement at the 23 Sandy Gallery Booksellers' website, viewed on March 11, 2015.
