Text : ‘The presence of animals in contemporary art as a sign of cultural change’ – Karin Andersen
Artist: Kate Clark’s human-animal hybrid taxidermy
Things to explore in the essay:
- How the view of animals in art has changed over time, why
- Developments of taxidermy
- Rogue taxidermy group, more ethical approaches to taxidermy through sourcing of animals
- Significance of hybrids
- Some of Kate Clark’s work demonstrates racial prejudice… ‘Little Girl’ used in Claudia Rankine’s ‘Citizen’,
I often struggle with having everything such as sources and citations in an organised manner. So, I have created a document which I am adding all of my sources to as I go along with key information such as citations and relevant quotes to make sure I keep an organised approach to make writing this essay an easier process.
