Themed Art and the Animal, the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2015 investigated human's relationship with animals. The concept behind the identity is the big question of “What makes us human?". It stems from Man's innate fear/fascination of crossing the divide between humans and animal. Would crossing the mean becoming savage, or does it simply imply the return to nature? In the key visual, the animal is humanised and human de-humanised through cropping. The use of acid colour animal textures plays on the idea of animal hybridisation, genetic manipulation and fantastic poeisis as reflected in the use of taxidermy in contemporary art. The textures, when placed in contrast with the text, speak of the Man's imposition on nature.
