Humans and animals have coexisted in cities for a long time. They have adapted themselves to the same circumstances in spite of their different languages, environments, and bodies. Dogs have been communicated with through ‘training’ systems, but the existence of most urban species often goes by unnoticed and can be hard to observe.
In Bellahouston Park one will find many urban creatures from the familiar dog to the shinnying squirrel. As a place where many species gather we can listen to and sometimes catch a glimpse of the more rare and shy city animals. I want to create an environment for communication with these lesser seen animals by using my work as tools of ‘training’ or as platforms for viewing.
