A woman from Paradise, California has created a phoenix sculpture from thousands of donated keys to places destroyed in California's deadliest wildfire last November
Jessie Mercer, a 34-year-old art therapist and trauma counselor, designed the 800-pound depiction of the mythological bird that rises from ashes. The sculpture holds more than 18,000 keys to homes, churches, schools, businesses and cars, including some that belonged to people who died in the Camp Fire. The blaze killed 85 people and burned more than 153,000 acres.
Unveiling the artExactly one year after the fire devoured the town in a matter of hours, Mercer unveiled her Phoenix Key Project on Friday during a commemoration ceremony at Paradise's Butte Resiliency Center to a crowd of thousands. The resiliency and resource center will be transformed into a place designated for the healing and growth of Paradise and its community.
