SECONDE PEAU

“Céline Clanet explores three temporalities of the symbolic link between humans and bears. She reveals a 'phantom community' formed with the vanished Cave Bear, evokes Bear Festivals where men embody the absent animal, and observes the rebirth of a bear killed in 2021, reconstituted by a taxidermist at Toulouse's Natural History Museum, illustrating the complex relationship between humanity and animality.”
