The mix of waste and animals is an act of craftivism and protest, challenging the audience to see the effect of their own actions in their everyday life. Working with her collection of curated rubbish, waste materials and found items, Jenna has created multiple animal placards using embroidery techniques rooted in the traditional craft.
