From the 8th of September until the 13th of October the “Lasting Void” will be on show at Galerie Kreo in Paris. The Lasting Void is a resin and fiberglass object that was made by casting the inside cavity of a calf that has died of natural causes.

When an animal is slaughtered its internal organs are removed. They leave behind a void, a negative space without purpose that vanishes soon after the creature’s life itself. It exists only for the transitional period in which we turn an animal into a product and start to perceive its body as meat. Used as a mold, the vessel will cast an abstract archetypal form.
