Polly Morgan, both a taxidermy enthusiast and photographer, has made a name for herself through those two forms in creating what is now life art with dead animals; bringing out the beauty that is embeded in animals. In her own words, taking the animal out of context and turning it into a piece of appreciated ornament. I would say her works celebrate the life and death of those animals that she has chosen to work on.
For your information, those chosen animals are victims of roadkill and from fellow friends who keep birds.
Here is an excellent writeup about her and her works: Polly Morgan: Dead Clever.
