The workshops and the field studies evolves around communication focusing on empathy through Kung Fu training, live drawing sessions with Kento, (a dog de bordeaux), and herd existence practice with horses. Interviews will be held with butchers, animal therapeutics, lab-scientists, veterinarians, hunters and those who are working close to other species.
The archive they create at NKF works as a source material in their artistic practice.
