Félicette (2019, bronze)
In October 1963, a black-and-white stray from Paris named Félicette made history as the first and only cat to travel to space. Selected by French scientists for her calm demeanor, she soared 154 kilometers above Earth on a suborbital flight and returned safely.
Yet Félicette’s story is as tragic as it is groundbreaking. Just two months after her successful mission, she was euthanized so researchers could study the effects of space travel on her body. Her sacrifice yielded little scientific insight, and for decades, her name faded into obscurity.
That changed in 2019, when a statue was unveiled in her honor at the International Space University in Strasbourg, depicting her gazing toward the stars.

The Aftermath (2017, photography)
"I wanted to depict the darker reality of the well-known wildebeest migration," says Simon. Returning after a stampede at first light he saw this pack of spotted hyenas gorging on the lifeless trampled bodies of those that didn’t survive. As one hyena momentarily broke from the feast, it gazed across in Simon’s direction.
In the surge to cross the Mara River the blue wildebeest struggle to climb the deep gullies they carve – many slip and perish under the hooves of those behind them. Spotted hyenas, with jaws powerful enough to crunch bones, will devour everything except the horns of their prey.

From the Dead Soon series (2017, human ashes under microscope)
"Dead Soon provides a profound experience that allows the viewer a glimpse into the inner universe of our physicality and its most finite representation (cremains) only to find notions of the moving cosmos, Gabriela Reyes Fuchs captured mesmerizing multicolored nebulae and fluorescence of unknown origin discovered when she looked at her father´s ashes utilizing a bright field microscope at UNAM’s MicroFilm Lab only days after his passage, "
