Designing transparency



Human beings seems to be intrigued by violence. Ones have to take for example the most watched films on Netflix, videos and websites or the flourishing of dark tourism: horror has its clientele. Yet there is a violence that we do not want to be confronted with, we consume it every day but we hardly see it, or we do not want to see it: it is the barbarism of the animal industries. How to use fictional violence to draw attention and communicate about real violence?
By navigating between myth and reality a nightmarish fiction is depicting an organic mass with a blurry identity that evokes both an animal and a human species. In a setting evoking a repellent industrial atmosphere, this mass is used as a source to make comfort objects ; we can see there patterns of pajamas, night masks etc ... being cut out of the flesh bits by bits.
