ISBN 978-3-943365-38-2 Installation art most usually refers to artworks installed in a 3-dimentional indoor space: ‘install’ generally means to put one thing inside another. Installation art shifts the focus from what art visually represents to what it communicates. Installation artists are concerned less with presenting an aesthetically pleasing object to viewers, and more interested in welcoming the viewer into an experience, and environment of the artist’s creation. The desired outcome is to question the subjective perception of the viewer. Works belonging to this movement resonate with our experiences – they exist within, and are always in conversation with, their environments. Pieces belonging to this category (visitor engagement) of Installation art shift the focus from art as a mere object to art as an instigator of dialogue. By occupying spaces so intentionally the artwork forces viewers into close interactions, so that viewing Installation art is more akin to an act of engagement than to one of contemplation.

To disrupt such forms of human-animal dichotomy is to challenge some of the fundamental cultural logics of modernity and empire, which render other beings killable, or at least exploitable, without the need for ethical reflection.
