Continuing her practice of making memorials of loss, Bowers has meticulously created 2 new works on paper from the series, 'The Dead Silence of Extinction'. These are highly realist drawings of tagged, taxidermied birds that have been recently declared extinct.

"I am interested in trying to become really conscious of eco-grief. A bird goes extinct, and we feel it, everybody does, but you push it away and you don’t remember. If we would remember the grief, we would take better care of the interconnectedness around us."
