about this project

part of the project ]EXPOSURE[[ENCLOSURE]

these stories are drawn from artist-in-residence visits to ten farms in late 2020 and early 2021 as part of artistic research into endemic livestock disease and more-than-human relationships

how do we describe our relationships with those more-than-human critters we surround ourselves with? how do we learn to see what is always in front of us?

touch technologies as more than human assemblages could be remaking what touching means -MarĂ­a Puig de la Bellacasa, Matters of Care: Speculative Ethics in More Than Human Worlds, 2017, p99 (first line), p104
