I found this work very interesting as the people are invisible except for a few small features which i would say are not features of kindness. They look almost like tortured souls. The other interesting bit is that the little dogs are full colour and do not seem empty. It is as though the identity if the people has fallen into the body of a dog. The roles of human and animal has changes somewhat. Humans have become weak and animals have become strong. This definetly links to my most recent works as i ahve switched the roles of myself and my dog so that i feel the fear and anxiety that an animal would in testing and portray that feeling in silence to my audience. In silence just like these invisible figures as they do not have a voice, they are visually portraying emotions.
