Janis Rafa explores the relationship between the human and non-human world, especially that between humans and horses. Turning to the horse as a paradigm of constructed physicality and lost identity, Rafa proposes a visual vocabulary that seeks to draw attention to our tendency to classify the non-human in terms of compatibility, productivity and efficiency, thus highlighting the seductive yet often malicious and sadistic bond at the heart of this age-old relationship.
