MFA essay, illustrated and pinted as a square, high gloss, board book. 

I have in my embrace of clear denominators, and in vertiginous hesitancy toward general image production conceptualized my practice as a sculptural repertoire of appropriated and replicated objects, that in some capacity facilitate and constitute man’s relationship to animals in an attempt to articulate the materiality of our anthrozoological present, all the while developing an understanding of the agential potential of the sculptural object. The essay Slow Feeder aims to describe and develop my art practice, as summaries above, in three chapters. 

HOUSEBROKEN Sheep, Childhood & Animation opens the essay with an autobiographical anecdote, and it's sequent implications in my first solo show as a BFA-student.

BOREDOM BREAKERS Zoostuff - its kinship and jest gives an in depth introduction to the practice of environmental enrichment, and how it influenced the sculptural project that became my bachelor degree show, and how it, in turn, grew to form the basis of my artistic practice.

SLOW FEEDER - Bowls to Bowels and Mazed Movement goes on to summarize the works in my MFA degree show, their physical properties, behaviorist references and art historical influences. Lastly, the essay ends with some speculations info the future of my sculptural works and potential ventures into a more performative realm.
