Dana Sherwood: Animal Appetites & Other Encounters in Wildness

"Dana Sherwood: Animal Appetites and Other Encounters in Wildness showcases the artist's pioneering approach to understanding humans' relationship to wild nature through her experiments with cross-species communication. The resulting films, sculpture installations, and paintings created over the past ten years offer unique opportunities for engaging with significant contemporary discussions around the environment, global food chains, feminism, animal studies, and spirituality. The book offers interdisciplinary essays and catalogues a variety of visual material, including paintings, video, recipe facsimiles, and sketches. A generously illustrated section of plates is followed by a biographical chronology of the artist's career to date, and a checklist of works in the exhibition"--
