The Zoo and the Rabbit comprises two video installation pieces. Zoo Hypothesis shows a scriptwriter and a performer having a conversation in an animal taxidermist’s studio. They attempt to come up with a performance, exploring the relationship between ‘gestures’ and ‘horrors’. Rabbit 314 is about the death of a laboratory rabbit. A glove puppetry performer with the laboratory rabbit's dead body in hand reenacts the movements- imagined by humans- of rabbits. The works presented were created in cooperation with writer Chen Wan-Yin, Hsu’s long-standing collaborator.
