fossils: telling an evolutionary story in stone


Through careful selection of 4 iconic moments of the evolution of life on earth, I want to create story with fossils and spatial relationships.  Placement of each fossil within the series and location within the park provides the viewer some sense of scale of geologic time. 

Starting with the Cenozoic and working back to the Precambrian, these calcified records provide clues about adaptation and climate change that place our extremely brief Anthropocenic period in stark contrast.
