domestic.tame.feral.wild
This was a project done working with Dodolab. I was invited to come to Charlottetown, PEI and engage the public through an artwork. I was thinking about a venn diagram of community and how I might, as an outsider, connect with a variable community in a specific place. I was also thinking about the fauna of PEI through the lens of domestic.tame.feral.wild and how this same lens might be applicable when trying to understand individuals within a community, belonging or not, migration etc.
I made patterns to build stuffed animals of fauna with particular relationships to the island - the fox (sometimes wild, sometimes farmed or domesticated, feral now that the fox farms have been abandoned and strikingly tame from exposure to well-meaning humans.
