The brief was to make a site-specific work and we focused on the roof of the main Biennial building called Roda Sten on the River Gota waterfront.<\/p>\n The performance-based HD video work documents a meeting between a human and various species of gull around a specially built table at which food is prepared and shared.<\/p>\n Although the work makes references to a biblical miracle narrative in which ideas of generosity are key, extending the idea strategically across and between species Vanishing Point can be seen as a critique on the legacy of how Christian values have been interpreted and together with Cartesian objectivity have placed anthropocentrism and human interests at the heart of our conceptions of the world to the detriment of more ecological consciousness. Such interests have contributed to a dislocation between human beings and the wider environment which is seen as a series of resources and sites for exploitation<\/p>\n Vanishing Point examines the potential importance of what may remain beyond sight, beyond representation in considering a non-anthropocentric view. How something implicit but ultimately specifically occluded may act as a spur for extending our perceptual reach.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n THERE IS A VISITOR # 13.<\/p>\n Footnotes in the State Darwin Museum The museum and the nature that surrounds it act as a model and starting point for an exploration as well as a discussion on the significance of public space; making place for talks and discussions of the continuous development of democracy \u2013 in theory and in practice.<\/p>\n In early spring 2006 Raketa made a documentation of the Biological Museum in Uppsala, Sweden. The documentation raised many questions concerning the identity of a museum containing a collection of the surrounding natural habitat. In what ways can the museum be a possible forum for discussing issues about nature, the global environment, politics, ethics, right of common, art, biology, philosophy, utopias and our common cultural heritage?<\/p>\n This became the starting point and take-off for There is a Visitor # 13, a project together with State Darwin Museum in Moscow. The museum was founded in 1907 as part of the Moscow Higher Female Courses (MHFC). The museum holds a very large collection, an extensive archive and a great research library. One of the museum\u2019s four founders was an artist and the museum also own a large collection of art. It\u2019s the first time the museum makes an exhibition of this kind: artists based their work upon the museum collection, comments and starts a talk concerning a museum and it\u2019s content and context.<\/p>\n The project has many inputs \u2013 but one is the need to communicate and to perceive the threats to biodiversity that exists but can not be seen \u2013 perhaps this is where a meeting between art, nature and science is important?<\/p>\n \/ Raketa, Uppsala 2008 \u2013 Mockba 2013<\/p>\n With support from: Swedish Arts Council, State Darwin Museum Moscow and The Embassy of Sweden in Moscow.![\"THERE](\"http:\/\/image.issuu.com\/131207223735-2a3a05635a54db939629f32d48fbfe76\/jpg\/page_1_thumb_large.jpg\")
