Elephants, Dinosaurs and Dodos by Mari Eckstein Gower -SOLD OUT!
Sold
I made this book as a statement about vanishing species - focusing on the current plight of elephants, which are being killed for their ivory. I've worked with translucent layers of vellum paper overlays to convey the feeling that things one assumes should be sold are disappearing in front of us.
