About the Artwork:

Humans leave tracks, like our fingerprints or our footprints. Tracks record when and where we have been. They are part of people's lives. So are the tracks of these animals. Animals enter the shelter with a story, and when they leave the shelter to find their new home, it marks the next chapter of their story. Each track is unique to the individual animal and the patterns underscore that uniqueness.
