Chicken
In 2009 and 2010 I dove into the physicality of chickens and the process of taking apart and putting back together- bodies, flesh, family history. For research, I spent hours watching "chicken tv," struggled with my fierce rooster, interrogated my butcher, cleaned the lungs from my hen's rib cage, and learned about my great grandpa's relationship with the radical Jewish chicken farmers of Petaluma.
