As humans, we have curated a world that disengages us from other animals. Within the confines of brick, wall, fence and chicken wire, animals can roam – but only so far, and movements of rats scuttling, birds flying, and insects crawling are distanced and contained. This issue explores how we build around, for and against other animals – from cow sheds and buffalo barns to dog schools and penguin pools. And as we imagine the necessary future of multi-species coexistence, we confront the reality that this must go beyond the confines of human imagination.
The front cover of this issue features A Moveable Beast by Helge Skodvin, a photo series documenting the temporary displacement of the Natural History Collection in Bergen, Norway. Lying prone in a finely furnished interior, this taxidermied giraffe reminds us of the human use of other animals for pleasure, as neutral objects of knowledge, or as representational tools, rather than beings with individual life and selfhood.
