WHAT KIND OF ANIMAL ARE YOU? (2024)
What Kind of Animal Are You? is a bodily exploration of human animality. Using both speech and non-verbal expressions of the body, the performance deconstructs, critiques, and invalidates the dualistic human-animal dichotomy and examines humanity thereafter. The performance moves among and interacts with the artworks and space of the Who Is an Animal? exhibition at HAM.
