Cabinet of Shadows: The Reliquary for Lost Animals

Cabinet of Shadows looks at the relationship between humans and famous animals, including Jumbo the Elephant, Jonah the embalmed Blue Whale, and Martha the Passenger Pigeon. Drawing together the fascinating stories of these three animals, Cabinet of Shadows brings Jumbo, Jonah, and Martha to the Artlab gallery through a performance, shadow art, films, and displays of ephemera.
