Short of the Week: CANARY SUICIDES

SHORT OF THE WEEK ARCHIVES

This short premiered at SXSW in 2011, and was inspired by the artwork of Catherine Coan. Among her many professions as an artist, taxidermist, writer and professor, Coan creates these scenes described as, “meditations on captivity, miniature embodiment, the pet as fetish, and the relationship between death and delight.”

Check out more of Coan’s work in the gallery below, and at the Canary Suicides website. And for those who need assurance, “NO CANARIES ARE KILLED for these pieces.”
