2-TIMES • Art
David Altmejd,
‘Rabbits’
@ Xavier Hufkens
— 

“Multiple eyes evoke
the esoteric notion
of the invisible ‘third
eye’ that provides
perception beyond
ordinary sight...”

Born: 
1974 – Montreal, 
Canada. 

‘Rabbits’: 
"Presents a series of
hybrid sculptures by
the Los Angeles-based
artist, in which humans
and rabbits are fused
into strange and enigmatic
forms; exemplifying some
of the most enduring
themes in his oeuvre — 
transformation,
metamorphosis and
regeneration — while
also revealing fresh
creative impulses and
subtle but significant
shifts in his sculptural
practice. 

“Altmejd’s amalgamated
forms — neither fully
human nor completely
animal — seem to be
arrested in a state of
transition that defies
the laws of nature.”
