The project “Shān Yáng de Dào - Way of the Goat” is exploring feral goats’ climbing skills to re-visit an inherently human condition - fear of heights.
The project will portray how these animals physically relate to space and to the landscapes they live in.
Shaolin Kong Fu and Mohwk Indian culture constitute a conceptual periphery for this work.Their members excelled mentally and physically in extreme conditions through hunting and studying animals.
Vital for this work is an exploration of alternate ways to generate knowledge and finding a new platform for learning, that is not delimited by health and safety policies, and are divided into knowinig and not knowing.
This project is being supported by Safle through the Studio Safle Award and developed through the Small Wonders scheme of Picture This.
