Felt
Using art’s creative potential for going beyond the limits of what we’ve taken for granted, the aim of my degree project is to examine ways in which animals and animal ethics could become part of the planning for upper secondary/high school arts education. What ethical problems will arise when combining live sheep, felting, arts education practices and research? The study has involved an art teacher, arts education students and a small flock of Gästrike sheep. Together we have examined ways in which this meeting could potentially open up for an artistic practice with more-than-human interests in mind.
