Feature in Antennae, The Journal of Nature in Visual Culture

Antennae is the leading journal on nature in contemporary art featuring the most cutting edge and influential art and writing about animals, nature and art. The latest issue, 50: Remaking Nature 'focuses on the work of contemporary artists whose practice reveals the constructedness of nature as a concept through which to map and untangle important, and yet overlooked, junctions in our coevolutional histories with the rest of the natural world'.

I am pleased to have some of my work featured in this issue, alongside a short essay about my series 'Lessons In Things'. You can download the issue for free, along with previous issues at http://www.antennae.org.uk/. There are many interesting and thought provoking articles and artists to discover and read, including one about the Museum of Hunting and Nature in Paris, which is one of my favourtie museums.

As I write this, most of the world is on lockdown, thanks to coronavirus. As well as providing a wealth of material to read at this time, I believe the topics are more relevant than ever, discussing our relationship with animals and the natural world and the consequences of our treatment of them.
