"The average American eats 81 lbs. of chicken annually. If each chicken averages about 5 lbs. then we each eat approximately 16.2 chickens annually. All those numbers add up to .04 chickens eaten daily per person. Provo [Utah] has a population of approximately 120,000 people. At .04 chickens per person daily, approximately 5,326 chickens are eaten daily in Provo [alone]."

"200 art student and two faculty members from BYU are participating in a group project in response to published statistics regarding the consumption of chickens in Provo, Utah."

I happen to be one of those students and my pieces are collages of stock photos found right here on Devi. They may not look like much alone, but they had to be simple so that the chicken silhouette would still be visible on a wall with 5000 others. So, I would encourage you to look at them as a whole rather than simply one by one. For those who are in the area, the show will begin the second week of December at the Sego Art Center.
