"Shoot It! is a criticism on gun rights and the mass shootings that are such a huge issue here in the U.S.
The sculpture is a small scale carnival shooting gallery, with a spinning platform with animals such as a
buffalo, rabbit, moose and squirrel. There are other things to shoot at too, such as rubber duckies and a
wall display. A rifle, a few handguns and an automatic are available to choose from as your weapon. An
audio track plays with clips of Charlton Heston, Elmer Fudd, Scarface, Deliverance, and other sound
clips. I have also made a video Shoot It!!, 2016." - Tracey Snelling.
