Collaborating with Animals

“When possible we incorporate the track, print, spoor or bite of the animal in our work, documenting the habitat or the passing of a creature that is here now but may not be for

much longer. This interaction can be viewed as evidence to an event, a form of primal

investigation; a physical performance of the senses.

We show our painting and drawing in installation alongside photographs and film to communicate and document the art making,

and our subsequent interaction with nature, as an ongoing process.”
