Prey is a visual and poetic exploration of the effects of power lines on the birds of prey within their surrounding ecosystems. Adapted to nest and hunt from the nearest points to the sky, the birds themselves fall prey to the contemporary hunger for electricity. As power lines litter the horizon where forests once sprouted, owls, hawks, and herons are left with no choice but to gamble their lives in order to survive.
