About
This show challenges fixed ideas about human and animal identities. It entices the viewer into a process of transformation – going beyond what you think you know and into something other.
The work weaves the real and the imagined to create a mode of communication that is less language-driven. It is an invitation to inhabit animal energy and to allow it to inhabit you, to lose self awareness and to experience the animal as other.
The show is intended to challenge, excite and shift perceptions, and offer insight into what happens when artist and animal meet in the context of contemporary art. It includes an eclectic mix of film, sound, animation, documentary, sculpture and drawings. The work conjures a feeling of ambiguity, supporting the idea of things in transformative states.
