| 500 | |a "'Still' was designed and printed by Jenna Rodriguez while she was the Victor Hammer Fellow at Wells College Book Arts Center in Aurora, New York ... The animals were found along Route 90 on my commute to and from Wells. Nicholas Rodriguez and Cosmo Carelli wrote the obituaries ... The tally marks represent every deceased animal I passed on Route 90 for one month, which consisted of 20 squirrels, 2 possums, 7 raccoons, 6 birds, 1 goose, 1 turtle, 5 frogs, 1 woodchuck, 6 deer, 1 dog, 2 skunks, and 2 unknown"--Colophon. | ||
| 500 | |a Pages are laminated in drum-leaf style with thin board between paper. Ten pages have cut-outs in the board that create pockets into which photographic prints of the animals are inserted. Six translucent leaves are sewn into six of the openings. They show X-rays of the animals superimposed on the drawings of their bodies. Sewing visible on the spine. The endsheets are letterpress printed in a very light green with the animal "obituaries" appearing in columns like a newspaper obituary page. | ||
| 500 | |a "'Still' was letterpress printed with the exception of the digital x-rays. The type was casted in Joanna at Michael and Winifred Bixler Letterfoundry. The animals were scanned and made into polymer plates. A special thanks to Cayuga Veterinary Services for allowing me to x-ray the animals. The paper is Strathmore Premium super smooth soft white and Curious Skins translucents. The covers are handmade paper from recycled clothing"--Colophon. | ||

| 520 | |a "'Still' memorializes roadkill I encountered in the Finger Lakes of Upstate New York. Moving from Chicago, IL to Aurora, NY I was overwhelmed with my daily encounter of roadkill. The book transforms into a creative non-fiction narrative allowing me to connect with my environment. The deceased animals were found on my daily commute and treated with respect. The cover is handmade paper to resemble asphalt. The book proceeds with an image of crows around an animal to represent the flight of their soul. Following is a pullout map indicating where animals were found. Animals are letterpress printed in two colors with linoleum blocks and polymer plates. A veterinarian allowed me to take x-rays, which are printed on transparent paper with vertical text stating statistics about roadkill. Each animal has an obituary that states factual and humorous information with a pullout photograph showing the crime scene and the longitude and latitude. At the end of the project a private ceremony was held where the animals were buried on an island to pay respect and give thanks"--Artist's website, January 19, 2017. | ||
