> What is this project about?
>
> Ondrej: The dog carpets are essentially about society's hypocrisy.
> It questions the special status that dogs and cats have in our,
> western society. Although we can see that in China, despite the
> local culture and cuisine, the pet culture is on its rise as well.
> The Bolivian experience was about hypocrisy as well, but it
> involved on a larger and direct scale mechanisms and structures
> within the society.
> Kristofer: It's about the tradition of producing carpets with wild
> animals as a hunting fetish. But in this case we were using an
> inappropriate animal, a pet - and like this we wanted to question
> the values behind this tradition. Ondrej was speaking to me about
> this idea already before the Bolivia show, but when I got the
> opportunity to participate in that show I thought it would be
> interesting to realize the dog carpets there with Ondrej, mainly
> for three reasons: more adventure, lower production costs and the
> problem of street dogs in South America (in contrast to the beloved
> inhouse pet in North America and in most European countries).
>
> How did you proceed to realize the work and how important was the
> local context for realizing the work?
>
> Ondrej: The context is always important. In fact in comparison to
> most countries in Europe, in Bolivia (La Paz) there is a great
> concentration of street dogs. We were informed then, that there is
> a municipal company called Zoonosis which is in charge of hunting
> street dogs and dealing with animals within the city of La Paz.
> They catch about 100 dogs a week and execute them every friday
> noon. We were supposed to prepare a project that would take place
> in a city Museum called Museo Tambo Quirquincho. The communication
> with Zoonosis was relatively simple, since both institutions were
> run by the city. We requested to obtain 10 sacrificed dogs for our
> "installation". This seemed to be a perfect paradox. A hunting
> carpet from a dog that is being hunted by the society.
>
> Kristofer: The local context was striking: when we went out in the
> center of the city at night there were dogs all over the streets
> eating garbage. We discovered that there is a whole municipal
> organisation dealing with the problem of street dogs in La Paz. The
> municipal service Zoonosis is hunting for street dogs during night
> time and collecting the dogs in a kind of dog prison and then
> killing them, about 100 dogs every week. We went to visit Zoonosis
> and talked to them about our project and we also explained our
> project to the director of the Museo Tambo Quirquincho. She wrote a
> recommendation letter for us and with this letter we went to
> Zoonosis again and met with the director. He signed and gave us a
> small post-it to authorise us to get 10 killed dogs the following
> week...
