Deborah Kruger has done a series of pieces based on the map of Cambodia, which is the last remaining habitat of the elegant and nearly extinct Bengal Florican. Missingis the third piece in the series and is distinguished by a blue outline of the map with an interior red outline and the center of piece open, so that viewers can see the wall behind. All the feathers are silk-screened on recycled plastic bags and if you look closely, you will see images of endangered birds and endangered languages.
Medium: Screen printing on recycled plastic bags, sewing

My solo exhibition titled Turbulence: Birds, Beauty, Language & Loss opened on August 4, 2018 at the Chapala Cultural Center and we had a great turnout.
There were 10 new pieces on view in the main gallery and 6 older pieces in the smaller gallery where Miguel Mata’s new documentary ran on a continuous loop.
