place for animals

Meet Vincent.

Vincent is the last ʻōpaeʻula (Hawaiian red shrimp) living in an EcoSphere, an enclosed ecosystem gifted to me over a decade ago.

Vincent has been hermetically sealed in this softball-sized orb for over ten years.

I am in the process of filming a documentary about Vincent’s life, and my plan to break him out.

Hi, I’m Matt, and I started Place for Animals as a vehicle for telling stories that consider the lives of nonhuman animals. It’s also sort of a sanctuary for shrimps and dogs – and eventually more.

In addition to original work, Place for Animals provides media production and strategic consulting services to animal rescues and other organizations. Need help?

To learn more about Place for Animals’ creative work and the sanctuary, or to collaborate on a project, get in touch.
