Image Statement: I Am Not There comes from the poem Dream 3: Night Bear Which Frightened Cattle from The Journals of Susanna Moodie by Margaret Atwood. I translated this phrase into morse code and wove it both horizontally and vertically using a summer and winter pattern. This phrase could be the last words uttered by our endangered species as they become extinct.
