Rhino Research

GOING/GONE: Rhino horns are essentially comprised of Keratin, a fibrous protein we produce naturally in our hair and nails. Numerous Asian countries, primarily Vietnam and China, are extracting this protein from Rhinos and transforming it into exotic faux medicinal remedies. This research project and first-edition rhino lapel pins and prints act as a reminder of the vulnerability of all animal species, plants, and minerals. They are going until they are gone.
