We Are All The Same But Different

We Are All The Same But Different reveals the systematic suffering of industrially farmed animals. Presenting viewers with the realities of animal agriculture, it asks them to challenge their current attitudes and reach new conclusions about how human society treats animals it deems consumable property.

The work includes stop-motion animation, footage of animals growing up inside the factory farm system, and an experiential, interactive installation component. The artist’s own story about the inner workings of factory farming offers viewers a personal narrative and relationship to her subject. Based on a foundation of activism, the work encourages a different approach by viewers who leave the installation with a change of heart and a desire to create positive transformation in the world.

Lindsay Moffat is and artist/activist investigating the connections between human and non-human animals. Focusing particularly on how humans view animals that are farmed for consumption. Through video and animation Lindsay explores the complicated layers of this controversial topic; while confronting the parallels between the treatment of marginalized people and living beings born into the factory farming system.
