An art installation, “Encounter,” by sculptor Colleen Rudolf, is on display a the Wolf Conservation Center! The work, showing an encounter between a wolf and a dog, symbolizes the interface between nature and the domesticated world, between the wild and the tamed.

“As the modern day dog is a descendant of the wolf, I am interested in the meeting of the two. What do evolution and the process of domestication mean for all of us? What is it like to encounter a former version of oneself? How do we to communicate?”

The installation will be on exhibit at the WCC until August and thankfully it’s “Atka Approved!”
