beautiful work and article

Part of a new series called “Invisible Wounds of Friendship” (which I think will be the title of my solo show in October!).

I’m working on a series of handmade cyanotypes (prints made with sunlight), using X-rays given to me by rescues and private people.

On the left is a “normal” doggie who had a broken jaw, rescued by my friend in Mexico. On the right is Arnie () who is a Frenchie who was originally bred for show. His breeder retired him early and he joined Heather’s family. She has since become a fierce advocate against brachycephalic breeding, as Arnie has an insane, painful, and costly list of health issues, all related to his breeding.

As you can see here, brachycephalic skulls are an atrocity. These dogs (bulldogs, frenchies, pugs, all flat-faced dogs) are bred with skulls so compact, they have not enough room for their eyes, teeth, brain and their airway is squished (hence the raspy breathing / snoring). These dogs are bred to suffocate. We must stop the demand for these dogs and pressure the breeding community to better their standards, or to stop breeding these altogether.
