{"product_id":"domestic-katrina-stamatopoulos","title":"DOMESTIC, Katrina Stamatopoulos","description":"\u003cp\u003eDOMESTIC is grounded in research on the food production industry, and focuses on relationships between humans and animals, eaters and eaten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe project stems from a batch of found 16mm agricultural and advertising footage shot in America in the 1960's; a poignant time for industrial and technological change in agriculture. With labor and land being increasingly replaced by chemical applications and machine advancements, commercial farms were morphing larger in size and fewer in number. Agriculture continues to chase its tail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the found 16mm film aged over time, portions became pierced by the 16mm projector needing to be snipped off bit by bit. Hand printing these isolated strips in the darkroom form a basis of DOMESTIC's visual narrative, with positive to negative and negative to positive transitioning. This printing process trajected towards a myriad of image making endeavours: from  photographing farm work in rural NSW, Australia, to documenting manufactured food waste in London, UK; Found human x-rays, scientific imagery and site specific installation accumulate, exploring the body as a 'coop'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book work looks specifically at some of our closest companion species, livestock and poultry: and how they experience gene silencing, mutations and behavioural change throughout evolution, and through living in close proximity with humans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDOMESTIC poses important questions around what biological adaptations may occur in the future for these co-dependent relationships, and features excerpts of conversations between Katrina Stamatopoulos and Martin Johnsson, Quantitative Geneticist at the Swedish University of Agricultural Studies in Uppsala, Sweden.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eUnique edition of 100\u003cbr\u003eEach copy comes with a signed contact print\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSelf-Published in December 2024\u003cbr\u003eSoft jacket cover, exposed binding\u003cbr\u003e96 pages\u003cbr\u003e170 x 240 mm\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9781036901585\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Self Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51636830372171,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2538\/3478\/files\/DOMESTICCover_01.webp?v=1744713263","url":"https:\/\/www.thelibraryproject.ie\/es\/products\/domestic-katrina-stamatopoulos","provider":"The Library Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
