THE LITTLE GALLERY

Through a reflection on human interaction with nature, evolutionary ideas and a sense of play, Selena de Carvalho presented the viewer with paradoxes inherent in our contemporary relationship with the natural world. The exhibition incorporated an array of extinct animal costumes with moving images and photographic documentation of the artist and models wearing these costumes.
