What is an animal? And can we humans make friends with animals? These questions are the focus of the group exhibition The Lives of Animals. The exhibition begins with the works of artist Lin May Saeed (1973-2023), who has fully dedicated her artistic creativity to the subjects of animal liberation, domestication, and cohabitation. Her work which examines complex relationships between humans and animals, is becoming one of the most important starting points for the creation of this project.
In The Lives of Animals M HKA presents an interdisciplinary approach, blending literature, philosophy, ethics, and visual arts to explore and challenge conventional perceptions about animals, whilst encouraging visitors to rethink their relationship with them.
