Chefs

Chefs

Chefs comprises a dozen stuffed head, including those of a boar, a horse, a stag, a mouse, a lion, a fox, and so on, arranged from largest to smallest on a metal rod that sticks out from the corner of a wall. The tip of the rod strikes a red curtain, which acts as a scenic backdrop to the violence that is implicit in this work. Chefs illustrates the role of the leader of the pack in the animal kingdom; it is a reflection on living together in accordance with rules based on a hierarchy and division of labour, focusing on who and what dominance really is. It encourages us to reassess our understanding of our relationships both with others and with the world around us.
