Animals Among Us
This exhibition explores the enduring relationship between humans and animals as companions, spirit guides, and mythic symbols woven into our shared history. From the earliest cave paintings to contemporary cultural icons, animals have served as mirrors for human emotion, survival, and belief. They appear in our myths and spiritual practices as protectors, messengers, and teachers, and in our daily lives as beloved companions�bridging the sacred and the familiar.
Rooted in anthropology and symbolism, this body of work examines how humans have continually turned to animals to express identity and belonging. Animals become vessels for storytelling and meaning, carrying cultural memory across generations. Whether represented as mythological beings, totems, or domestic presences, they reflect humanity�s need to understand itself through the natural world and to find connection beyond the human realm.
