What if the story about the development of human society was not shaped by the western hero myth, who portrays the human being as an overpowering individual?

Which narratives and objects would result from an alternative human-animal relationship?

 

„For all true lovers of whatever species“ is a speculative design project that explores the common becoming between humans and animals based on considerations of co-evolution.

In the face of an approaching presence of global warming and geographic changes, the narratives do not seek to stop the unstoppable, but rather to explore being-new-in-the-world.

How can we live with new connections and upcoming challenges?

Three fictional scenarios question the human relationships to different species and the influence on the interrelationships that arise between animals, microorganisms and humans.
