WildLife 2026
Group Exhibition

Ends 31st August 2026

“To be alive is to be a living soul.  An animal – and we are all animals – is an embodied soul (psyche).”  
Quotation from J.M. Coetzee’s metafictional novella exploring animal rights and human morality through the lectures of Elizabeth Costello, Coetzee’s fictional alter ego. Published by Princeton University Press in 1999, this fable was presented as a Tanner Lecture sponsored by the University Centre for human values at Princeton University.

Wild creatures have a voice but not one we can understand. Many species face extinction and as human beings who hunt, farm and use the land we share with them, it is becoming increasingly apparent that we do not have sufficient understanding to control their existence and jeopardise our own in not acknowledging this. Wildlife 2026 is a group exhibition of committed Wildlife artists presenting the animals as they see them.
