Extinction, Invasion, Survival

GraceDaviesA sculptural study of our impact on wildlife in America
A work in progress by Grace Davies
January 23–February 20
Opening Reception: January 23rd, 5:30–8pm

The concept for this show came about when sculptor Grace Davies wanted to see an ivory-billed woodpecker. Given that one hasn't been seen since the 1930s, making a life-size one from clay was the next best thing. During the sculpting process she felt a growing connection with this species, and wanted to feel the same personal involvement with other extinct and threatened species. This is a work in progress, and Grace hopes that her growing menagerie will entertain, inform, and possibly inspire others to get involved.
