Examining Domesticity and Relating to “the Other” Through Raising Silkworms Within Constructed Art Spaces

Hunter-Lombardi, Susan Brooke

Abstract Details

2011, Master of Fine Arts, Ohio State University, Art.
This body of research examines both the cyclic nature of lifecycles and the finite life expectancy of individuals through raising domesticated silkworms. It seeks to support a greater understanding of another species, soliciting empathy as it draws parallels between human behavior and those of silkworms/moths. Lastly, the creative research is realized through beautiful yet dilapidated spaces for the purpose of housing the insects in life and death.
