Hayden Fowler’s practice reflects upon the separation between humanity and nature at a time when the natural is becoming increasingly difficult to define. Fowler worked collaboratively with a tattoo artist to have a pair of extinct birds, the New Zealand Huia, etched into his torso. This photomedia and sound installation allows the spectator to watch the full and complex tattoo procedure unfold as the Huia is resurrected on Fowler’s body.
