Not really sure about, whether this certain picture of the actual suppliers of furniture leather (the pigs) as an installation could rather expressed even more intriguing, something more shocking and not in this harmless, cute manner and all over this in very plain aesthetics. I think this is why I almost did not see the actual meaning. As said, not sure…
For my first thoughts on this, for a start, they could have even done all this in a more 'alive' version, I mean, those pigs seem very objective and not alive. For instance this sow should better ‘gaily lie in mud’ (I mean there are no dramatics in the postures).
But anyway they do very good work!
