Explore the history, learn about the process and take a closer look at some of the masterful creations of Divya Anantharaman, New York City’s premiere taxidermist. With a unique combination of science and style, her expertise is with birds, small mammals, and anatomic anomalies. Her work seeks to combine the demonstrative aspect of scientific presentation with the symbolic, introspective nature of art.
