“You frame a rule, set a condition, but you cannot define how a given entity will interact with another. I can never fully determine what animals will do.... What I show is a set of elements and the way they collide, confront and agree with each other. In a certain way, I construct a play. I don’t want to exhibit something to someone any more. I want to do the reverse: I want to exhibit someone to something.” – Pierre Huyghe (The Art Newspaper, September 23, 2013) 2
