Project fifty-two

Project fifty-two is a series Mary has been working on about pets euthanized at the animal shelter. While living in East TN, she began working with  a local animal shelter and in doing so had her eyes opened to the large number of highly adoptable pets that were being put down. She decided to make work about the animals she met who died  - to commemorate their lives and to make a statement about the situation. The project has been a difficult one and is far from being completed at this point. From the start of the project, she created a blog to document her progress it can be seen here .
