In consideration of my master thesis, “How can the re-presentation of animal materialities in art and artefacts re-form public opinion about the sixth mass extinction?”, I have developed a speculative museum of the future along with the physical artefacts that will in due time populate its halls. These hand-crafted “animalARTefacts” explicitly incorporate dead animal bodies to draw attention to narratives around the loss of biodiversity. This hypothetical museum makes the objects in its collection available for loan to actual museums in the present, to create site-responsive artistic interventions that re-contextualise existing narratives around human/animal relationships in cultural spaces.
