“Endangered World: Facebook”

A performance piece based on the 360 endangered animals featured in the 2008 North Pole installation.

“During 2009-2010, I’ll draw an endangered animal from each of Earth’s 360° and upload it as my facebook profile image. By assuming the animal’s identity on this social networking site, I aim to show the ultimate interconnection: What endangers one species endangers all, including our own.”
