Artwork: The Dancer V, A marine mammal invoking higher spirits
Artist: Marguerite Humeau
Because of her interest in ecosystems, Marguerite Humeau regularly talks with zoologists, biologists and cognitive experts. Together with them she formulates fictitious hypotheses from which her artworks then germinate. One such speculative theory, for example, is that global warming could cause animals to develop spiritual behaviour. This stimulating proposition led to a series of sculptures in which Humeau tries to imagine this spiritual behaviour.
