"The Dandelion Abattoir" by Glory Kuk
In a self-proclaimed nation of ‘animal lovers’, are we really who we want to believe we are? The drawing questions our fundamental way of living, how industrial farming has led to cruelty, where a transformation from life to product has taken place.
Taking place in a post-meat-eating world where humans can no longer slaughter animals for the bliss of their taste buds, thousands of abandoned abattoirs scatter across the fields - psychologically scarred landscapes where billions of lives are slaughtered within. Existing within the graveyard landscape, the Dandelion Abattoir uses vast dandelion fields surrounding it to creating proteins from the flowers through an extraction process. Small blimps carry the proteins to the city, to support a new way of living.
As we evaluate humanity and our existing choices, the Dandelion Abattoir serves as a platform to dream about a brave new world with no animal exploitation…
