The How & Why

The How & Why is an installation presented as a traveling show from a Natural History Museum. The display is divided into three parts, each featuring electronic taxidermy creatures: an exotic butterfly, a deep sea fish and a rare turtle. These representations of air, water and land invoke curiosity while also causing the viewer to question what they see. Are these creatures increasingly removed from reality or is nature actually this bizarre?
