Lindsay Pichaske

What separates human from animal? What borders exist between the real and the imagined, the beautiful and the repugnant, the living and dying, the creator and the made?

I think that Lindsay Pichaske’s work is hugely relative to the work Dominic and Amy are creating. In Dominic’s case her words “What separates Human from animal” reminded me of the inequality of the whales and the respect they are ignored of and when she questions “What borders exist between the real and the imagined, the beautiful and the repugnant, the living and dying, the creator and the made” I am reminded of Amy’s work because she has broken this boundary of human and animal, of real and imaginary in her pieces of animal/human form.
