Categories Performance Art, PhotographyPosted on

“The Pig That Therefore I Am”, the latest work by korean-american artist Miru Kim, is a collection of photographs that explores the transferring qualities of skin and the reasoned separation between humans and animals. the work, a modification of philosopher René Descartes’ famed supposition, “I think therefore I am”, utilizes the largest organ of the human body to illustrate the striking similarities between beast and man, conveying the notion of being one with your surrounding through the sense of physical touch.
