Soloudstilling Anihuman
In Denmark the mini pig has been invented for animal experiments and pig’s organs give humans new life. All the same pigs live in industrial farms in controlled environments 12 million pigs are present in DK co-existing with 6 million Human inhabitants. PIGS are very sensitive to sound; in the old days pigs would roam freely in the forests, and once a year be summoned by a “hog caller”. Today Hog calling contests are popular at US country fairs. Male and female contestants call out for imaginary pigs on stage, they throws them selves with all their might, completely and uninhibitedly becoming one with the sound of pigs. The video piece is a re-enactment of a Hog-calling contest for a pig audience.
