   Totem is an installation of 16 fake fur totem poles (8-11 feet tall), which depict cats and dogs I once knew either as a Humane Society volunteer or through friends.

   Among the totems there is also 1 rabbit. Totem was my follow up exhibition to Dog Buddha and further explores my concern for the treatment of homeless domestic animals.

   I made the totems after adopting my two cats, Dolce and Pepe, from the Annex Cat Rescue. In Totem, I chose to represent the animals as big and imposing, yet they remain cute and fluffy.
