Becoming Animal explores the existential nature of human existence in a rich survey through Symbolism, Surrealism, Minimalism and contemporary art. This investigation builds from a literary and philosophical framework that addresses consciousness and the self.
Through a series of apparently irreconcilable artistically and politically divergent movements, empty transcendence is confronted by the enduring concepts of eternity and utopia.
Catalogue for the exhibiotn Becoming Animal at Den Frie Centre of Contemporary Art, Copenhagen, and Museum of Religious Art, Lemvig.
