Welded metal sculpture with video screens embedded, driven by a bank of DVD players.

“My intention for this work was to investigate the modern philosophy of causing pain and suffering in order to gain knowledge.  There is no end in sight to the variety and horrific-ness of the experiments being designed and conducted in the guise of scientific exploration.  What really does the suffering of animals (non-human) equate to?  If it is truly less significant than ours, then how much so? “
