Making Kin – Animal Series
The literary genre of xenofiction proposes an exercise of ethological research and imagination, placing our body inside another’s perspective. When we practice “becoming with” another’s experience, we practice empathy. When we embody collectiveness, we understand ourselves as a whole and therefore feel no separation. What would it be like to inhabit a body without limits or definition? Which words and meanings make us feel like “non-animals”? In this book, the contributions come from writers and non-writers who have experimented with non-human animals and hybrid bodies to create works and visual interpretations that explore different ways to experience “otherness”.
